Given:

The length of the base of the triangular base of the prism, b=7 in.

The altitude of the triangular base, l=5 in.

The height of the prism, h=13 in.

Now, the volume of the prism can be calculated as,

[tex]\begin{gathered} V=\text{ Base Area}\times height \\ =\frac{1}{2}bl\times h \\ =\frac{1}{2}\times7\times5\times13 \\ =227.5\text{ cu. in} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the volume of the triangular prism is 227.5 cu. in.
