The base of a triangular prism has a base of 5 cm and a height of 8 cm. The prism itself has a height of 7 cm. What is its volume?

Respuesta :

Answer:

140

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a triangular prism with a base of 5 cm and height of 8cm and the height of the prism as 7cm is 140 cm³

Volume of a triangular prism

volume of triangular prism = 1 / 2 bhl

where

  • b = base of the triangular base
  • h = height of the triangular base
  • l = height of the triangular prism

Therefore,

base = b = 5 cm

height = h = 8 cm

l  = 7cm

Hence,

volume of the triangular prism = 1 / 2 × 5 × 8 × 7

volume of the triangular prism = 280 / 2

volume of the triangular prism = 140 cm³
