I think first you calculate the area of the triangular face. If you forgot that's ok. The formula is A= bxh divided by 2 which is the same as the area of a triangle is base multiplyed by height and divided by two. Then you need to know the length of the prism(the length of the rectangle)and multiply them together. So your calculation should look like this: Triangular face- A=bxh divided by 2 let's say that the base of the triangle is 5 cm and the height is 12cm Length of prism- let's say the length is 25 cm A=bxh divided by 2 A=5 x 12 divided by 2 A = 20 divided by 2 A = 30 cm squared 30 x 25 = 750cm squared( little 2)

Formula for volume of a triangular prism?
Find the area of a triangular section, 1/2bh, and then multiply by the length of the prism.
Formula for volume of triangular prism?
To find the volume of a triangular prism, find the area of one of the triangles (base of the prism) first (base x height divided by 2). When you have the area of the triangle, then multiply the area of the triangle by the height of the prism, *not the height of the base.
How do you get the volume of a triangular prism?
Like all prisms you find the area of one of the triangular faces and then multiply by the height.
Volume for a triangular prism?
1/2 x length x width x height
What is the formula for finding the volume of a triangular based prism?
Volume = Area of the base X height of prism. This formula works for all prisms, not just triangular prisms. Area of a triangle = height of triangle X 1/2 X base of triangle.
How do you do the volume of a triangular prism?
triangular prism- formula: Abh(area of the base * height)
Would tripling the height of a triangular prism triple its volume?
If you triplied the height of a triangular prism, would that triple it volume
The formula for finding the volume of a triangular prism?
A triangular prism can be thought of as a stack of triangles. Then the volume is equal to the area of the triangular base multiplied by the height of the prism, or 1/2 length * width * height.
Formula for volume of triangular?
It depends on triangular what: pyramid, dipyramid, prism, ...
How much a triangular prism equal to?
Do you mean, what is the volume of a (right) triangular prism? Multiply the area of one end by the length of the prism.
How do you find the volume for a triangular prism?
The volume of any prism is worked out in the same way whether it's a hexagonal prism, circular prism or a triangular prism. You just need to times the length of the prism against the area of the cross-section.
How to find the volume of a triangular prism?
You find the volume of a triangular prism by using this formula: Volume = 1/2 base of the triangle x height of the triangle x height of the prism.
What is the formula for calculating the volume of a triangular prism?
The volume of a three-dimensional figure is the amount of space it encloses. The volume V of a triangular prism is the product of the area B of a base and the height h of the prism. (The bases are triangles. In a special case of a right triangular prism the bases are right triangles)
How do you find capacity for a triangular prism?
Capacity generally implies volume in geometry. To calculate the volume of a triangular prism, find the area of one of its triangular bases and multiply it by the height of the shape.
Formula for volume of a triangular prism?
Find the area of a triangular section, 1/2bh, and then multiply by the length of the prism.
How do you find the volume of a rectangular prism relates to the volume of a tringular prism if the two have the same lengthwidthand height?
The volume of a rectangular prism is found by; Volume = Length x Width x Height The volume of a triangular prism is found by; Volume = 1/2 x Length x Width x Height Therefore, Length, Width and Height being identical, 1) the volume of a rectangular prism is twice that of a similar triangular prism OR 2) the colume of a triangular prism is half that of a similar rectangular prism.
How do you find volume in a triangular prism?
The answer depends on what measurements you do have.
