Understanding Volume and Area of Triangular Prisms

What is the formula to calculate the area of a triangle?

• A = b + h

• A = 2 * b * h

• A = b * h

• A = b * h / 2

In the context of a triangular prism, what does the 'big B' in the volume formula represent?

• The area of the base shape

• The width of the prism

• The height of the prism

• The length of the base

How do you calculate the volume of a triangular prism?

• Add the base area to the height of the prism

• Multiply the base area by the height of the prism

• Divide the base area by the height of the prism

• Subtract the base area from the height of the prism

What is the final unit of measurement for the volume of a triangular prism?

• Units per square

• Units squared

• Units cubed

• Units

If the base area of a triangular prism is 35 units squared and the height is 15 units, what is the volume?

• 50 units cubed

• 75 units cubed

• 525 units cubed

• 350 units cubed
