When Finding the volume of a triangular prism, First we must find the area of the base. What is the area of the base of the triangular prism? use the formula sheet provided.
Area = 1/2 bh
3 cm
2 cm
7 cm
Area = cm ^2
(I got 21)
To find the area of the base of the triangular prism, we use the formula for the area of a triangle, which is 1/2 * base * height.
Given:
Base = 3 cm
Height = 2 cm
Area = 1/2 * 3 cm * 2 cm
Area = 3 cm * 1 cm
Area = 3 cm^2
Therefore, the area of the base of the triangular prism is 3 cm^2.
