The lateral area L.A. of the right triangular prism is the sum of the areas of its lateral faces, which are rectangles with length the height (l = h = 15) and wide the sides of the triangle (w1 = leg1 = 3, w2 = leg2 = 5, w3 = hypotenuse = 7).
So we have:
L.A. = (15 x 3) + (15 x 5) + (15 x 7)
L.A. = 15(3 + 5 + 7)
L.A. = 225
Thus, we can also say that the lateral area of a prism is the product of the perimeter of its base with the height of the prism.
240 units squared
No, there are more that triangular prisms. There are also rectangular prisms and one other that i cant recall.=-)
A triangular prism has two triangular bases and three lateral rectangular faces. It has five faces in all so that it is a pentahedron.A triangular pyramid has a triangular base and three triangular lateral faces. It has 4 faces in all so that it is a tetrahedron.
there is no rght agles in a triangular prisms
No, Triangular prisms have two bases that are triangular but these need not be equilateral.

Like all prisms you find the area of one of the triangular faces and then multiply by the height.

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.

None, but you can cut a cube into any number ≥ 2 of triangular prisms.
They both have a triangular shape
There are Rectangular, Triangular, Pentagonal, and Square Prisms.
