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
