What is the surface area of a triangular prism with a base that is an equilateral triangle with side lenght of 4.2 cm and a height of 6 cm?
47.88 cm2
What is the lateral area of the right equilateral triangle prism?
It is the perimeter of a triangle times the length of the prism (in square units).
What is the formula for surface area of prism?
Assuming the cross-section is an equilateral triangle with sides of 'a' and the length is 'b' the surface area will be 3ab + SQRT(3).a2
What is the lateral area of a right prism with height 14 cm and equilateral triangle base with side 8 cm?
Using Pythagoras' theorem the height of the equilateral triangle works out as about 7 cm and so with the given dimensions it would appear to be quite difficult to work out the lateral area.
What is the difference between a triangle and a prism?
A triangle is a two dimensional object. A Prism is a thee dimensional object. The base of a Prism is a Triangle, but it also has height.
What is the formula for the surface area of a right prism?
Type your answer hereThe surface area of a prism is square root of 3* a 2 /4 + 3*a*h where a is edge of equilateral triangle and h is height of prism
What is the surface area of a triangular prism with a base that is an equilateral triangle with side lenght of 4.2 cm and a height of 6 cm?
47.88 cm2
How do you calculate the surface area of an equalaterial trinuglar based prism?
To calculate the surface area of the equilateral triangular-based prism, you need to calculate the area of the equilateral triangle and all the other sides of the prism. The total area of all the phases will give the total surface are of an equilateral triangular based prism.
How do you find the volume and surface area of a triangle or prism?
The Surface area of a triangle = 0.5*base*height The volume of a prism = area of its cross-section*length
Is regular prism an equilateral prism?
not necessarily... it can be any triangle.
What is the lateral area of the right equilateral triangle prism?
It is the perimeter of a triangle times the length of the prism (in square units).

How do you measure the surface of a triangular prism?
When you say surface of a prism this means the total amount of space on the outside of the prism. You have specified it to be a triangular prism, but taking the surface area of all prisms is the same process for all prisms. When finding the surface area of a prism you always use this equation... S.A. = (2 x Area of Prism Base) + (Height x Perimeter of Prism Base) In a triangular prism the base would be a triangle. Therefore to find the area you have to do 0.5 x base of the triangle x height of the triangle. For the perimeter of the triangle just add the length of all the sides together. The height indicated in your S.A. = ... formula... is how tall the prism actually stands. So since this prism is a triangular prism take the general surface area equation and put the correct triangular measurements into the general equation and you have this... S.A. = [2 x 0.5 x (height) x (base)] + [Height x perimeter] Here is the formula in word form. The surface area of a triangular prism is equal to two multiplied by one half multiplied by the height of the traingular height multiplied by the triangular base compute this number and then add it to the product of the height of the prism times the perimeter of the triangular base.
What is the triangular prism volume formula?
The Formula is Base*Height, or 1/2 Height (altitude of the triangle) * Base (of the Triangle) * height (Height of the prism)
In a triangular prism what is the difference between the height of the base and the height of the prism?
The height of the base is part of the triangle and the height of the prism is the height of the rectangle
How do you find the surface area of an equilateral triangular prism?
To find the surface area of an equilateral triangular prism you take the area of the rectangular sides and the triangular bases and add them up and your done.
