Assume that a = apothem length of the triangular prism, b = base length of the triangular prism, and h = height of the triangular prism. The formulas to find the surface area is SA = ab + 3bh.
a triangular prism has to triangular bases while a rectangular prism has a rectangle as the bases.
A triangular prism
A triangular prism has two triangular faces, a rectangular prism does not have any.
A triangular prism.
Assume that a = apothem length of the triangular prism, b = base length of the triangular prism, and h = height of the triangular prism. The formulas to find the surface area is SA = ab + 3bh.
You look at the edge of the triangular prism and count the points
the defnition of find the surface area of triangular prism and cylinder
You look at the edge of the triangular prism and count the points
Find the area of a triangular section, 1/2bh, and then multiply by the length of the prism.
SA = 2B + Ph SA = 2(1/2ab) + (b + c + d)h SA = ab + (b + c + d)h
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.
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.
okay, to find the base of a triangular prism you just b = 2a/h (base = 2 * area/height)
a triangular prism has to triangular bases while a rectangular prism has a rectangle as the bases.
a triangular prism is different from a rectangular prism because: their names are different a triangular prism has a triangle for its' base a rectangular prism has a rectangle base a triangular prism has less sides than a rectangular prism a rectangular prism has more sides than a triangular prism
