Work with Steps to Find Volume of Triangular Prism for l = 10, w = 8 & h = 6
Question:
The length of triangular prism is 10 inches, width is 8 inches and height is 6 inches, find what is the volume and the surface area of that prism?
workout :The length of triangular prism is 10 inches, width is 8 inches and height is 6 inches, find what is the volume and the surface area of that prism?
step 1 Address the formula, input parameters and values
Length = 10 in
Width = 8 in
Height = 6 in
step 2 Apply length, width and height values in below volume formula
Volume V = lwh/2
= 10 x 8 x 6/2in³
= 480/2in³
Volume V = 240 in³
step 3 Apply length, width and height values in below surface area formula
Surface Area = 2lw + 2(l + w)h
= 2 x 10 x 8 + 2 x (10 + 8) x 6 in²
= 160 + (2 x 18 x 6) in²
= 160 + 216 in²
Surface Area = 376 in²
