Triangular prism is a prism whose triangle as the base. The volume of a triangular prism could be determined using
[tex]\boxed{v= \text{area of base} \times \text{height of prism}}[/tex]
Remember, the base is a triangle, so the formula will be
[tex]v= \text{area of triangle} \times \text{height of prism}[/tex]
[tex]v = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base of triangle} \times \text{height of triangle} \times \text{height of prism}[/tex]
plug in the numbers
[tex]v= \frac{1}{2} \times 30 \times 36 \times 61 [/tex]
v = 15 × 36 × 61
v = 16,740
The volume is 16,740 cm³
