Find the volume of a triangular prism with base length (l) 170mm

vertical height (h) 92mm and thickness (b) 40mm.

The length of the diagonal is 193.3mm

The formula for the volume (V) of a right angled triangular prism is

where l = length of base, b = breadth, h = perpendicular height

Substitute l, b and h with the actual dimensions of the prism

V = 20 x 170(92)
                  2

   = 156400

 

The answer for a volume problem is given in cubic units

V =156400 mm³
