A right-angled triangular prism is called a right prism. The formula for calculating the volume of a prism is V = B x h, where B = area of base, and h = height of the prism.
The area for the base is calculated using the formula B = 1/2(length x height) (area of a triangle).
Example: The height of a prism is 10 cm. The base is a right triangle with legs of length 5 cm and 12 cm, so
B = 1/2(5x12)
B = 30cm2
V = B x h = 30cm2 x 10cm
V = 300cm3

What is a prism with a cross-section of a right angled triangle?
A right-angled triangular prism!
How many 90 degree angles does a triangular prism have?
A triangular prism has three rectangular faces which, between them, will have 4*3 = 12 right angles. It also has two triangular faces and these can have another 2 right angles. So the answer is 12 or 14, depending on whether the triangles are right angled or not.

Does a triangular prism have any right angles?
A triangular prism can have right angles. If the prism has two triangular ends, then each of the three 'sides' meets each of the ends at right angles.

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.
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 get the volume of a right triangular prism?
1/2 * base * height * thickness
How many 90 degree angles does a triangular prism have?
A triangular prism has three rectangular faces which, between them, will have 4*3 = 12 right angles. It also has two triangular faces and these can have another 2 right angles. So the answer is 12 or 14, depending on whether the triangles are right angled or not.
