a gardener uses a triangular prism shpapped clay pot to plant flowers. the triangular base is 3 units along the base and 5 units high. the pot has a height of 26 units. what is the volume

Respuesta :

The volume of the triangular prism clay pot is 195 unit³

Volume of a triangular prism:

  • v = BH

where

B = base area

H = height of the prism

Therefore,

Base area = area of a triangle

area of a triangle = 1 / 2 × base × height

Therefore,

B = 1 / 2 × b × h

b = 3 units

h = 5 units

B = 1 / 2  × 3 × 5

B = 15 / 2

B = 7.5 units²

Therefore,

H = 26 units

 B = 7.5 units²

V = 7.5 × 26

V= 195 unit³
