A triangular prism has a base area of 27 square inches and a height of 13 inches. What is the volume of the prism ?

12 inches
24 inches
32 inches
48 inches

none of those choices is correct. I suspect you have confused two questions.

To find the volume of a triangular prism, you need to multiply the base area by the height. In this case, the base area is given as 27 square inches and the height is given as 13 inches.

So, the volume can be calculated as:
Volume = Base area * Height
Volume = 27 square inches * 13 inches
Volume = 351 cubic inches

Therefore, the volume of the triangular prism is 351 cubic inches.
