To find the volume of a triangular prism:
⇒ necessary to know the formula
[tex]Volume = (Area-of-Triangular- base)*(length)[/tex]
Let's first find the area of the triangular base:
⇒the formula for the finding the area of a triangle is ⇒ [tex]\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]
- b: length of base --> 3mm
- h: length of height: 6mm
Area of the triangle is [tex]\frac{1}{2}*3*6=3*3=9[/tex]
Since the area of the triangular base is 9 and the length is 5.22
⇒ the volume is:
[tex]Volume = 9 * 5.22=46.98mm^3[/tex]
When the volume is rounded to the nearest tenth, the volume is 47.0 [tex]mm^3[/tex]
Hope that helps!
