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)


What is the volume of the prism with measurements of 6 5 and 3?

I presume you mean a rectangular prism. Assuming all the angles are right angles, so that it is a rectangular parallelepiped, the volume is just the product of the three dimensions. I get 90.


What is the width of a rectangular prism that is 9 yards long and 8 yards high with a volume of 144?

The volume of a rectangular prism is equal to length x width x height. Therefore, you have to choose the width so that the product of the three numbers is equal to the volume, i.e., equal to 144.


Name the faces of the 7 sided polyhedron?

There are a number of possible 7-sided polyhedra. Three that come immediately to mind are: a hexagonal pyramid, a pentagonal prism, a "stretched" triangular pyramid (triangular base, rectangular sides, and then triangular faces meeting at an apex).


A square pyramid has a height of 18cm and base that measures 12cm on each side explain whether tripling the height would triple the volume of the pyramid?

Well, honey, tripling the height of the pyramid would not triple the volume. Volume is proportional to the height, not directly related. Tripling the height would increase the volume by a factor of 3, not 3 times more. Math can be a tricky little devil sometimes!

How does the volume of a prism compare to the volume of the pyramid with the same base and height?

What best describes an altitude of a three dimensional object?

An altitude of a three-dimensional object refers to the vertical height of the object measured from its base to its topmost point. In the context of geometric shapes, such as a prism or pyramid, the altitude is the perpendicular distance from the base to the apex or top face. This measurement is crucial for determining the volume and surface area of the object.

How do you find the volume a rectangular prism?

-- Measure the length, width, and height of the prism. -- Multiply the three numbers. The result is the volume of the prism.


How do you calculate volume of a rectan gular prism?

Measure, then multiply(length of the prism) x (width of the prism) x (height of the prism) .The product of the three dimensions is the volume of the prism.
