What is the volume of triangular prism?

A triangular prism's volume is the area that it takes up in all three dimensions. A prism is a solid object that has the same cross-section throughout its entire length, equal bases, and flat, rectangular side faces. Prisms can be divided into many categories and given different names depending on the form of their bases. A triangular prism has three rectangular lateral sides and two identical triangular bases.

The formula yields the volume of a triangular prism.

Volume of triangular prism  = 1/2lwh

Where,

w = width

h = height

l = length.

We may determine the height by filling in the specified measurements.

1200cm ³ = 1/2 × (20 cm) × (10 cm) × h

h = (1200 cm³) / (100 cm²))

h = 12 cm

The box has a 12 centimeter height.
