Complexity=1

Find the volume of the triangular prisms given. Answer with proper units. To represent m3, use "cu m". Sample answer: "5 cu m".

#ProblemCorrect AnswerYour Answer
1 volume =
Solution
The volume of a triangular prism is the area of the triangle times the length perpendicular to the triangle. In our case, the length perpendicular to the triangle is the width.
Area of triangle = 1/2bh =
1/2(length)(height) =
(1/2)(4 yd)(4yd) =
8 yd2
V = Triangle Area × width =
8 yd2 × 3 yd =
24yd3

2 volume =
Solution
The volume of a triangular prism is the area of the triangle times the length perpendicular to the triangle. In our case, the length perpendicular to the triangle is the width.
Area of triangle = 1/2bh =
1/2(length)(height) =
(1/2)(1 m)(2m) =
1 m2
V = Triangle Area × width =
1 m2 × 3 m =
3m3

Complexity=2

Find the volume of the triangular prisms given. Answer with proper units. To represent m3, use "cu m". Sample answer: "5 cu m".

#ProblemCorrect AnswerYour Answer
1 volume =
Solution
The volume of a triangular prism is the area of the triangle times the length perpendicular to the triangle. In our case, the length perpendicular to the triangle is the width.
Area of triangle = 1/2bh =
1/2(length)(height) =
(1/2)(7 cm)(5cm) =
17.5 cm2
V = Triangle Area × width =
17.5 cm2 × 3 cm =
52.5cm3
#ProblemCorrect AnswerYour Answer
2 volume =
Solution
The volume of a triangular prism is the area of the triangle times the length perpendicular to the triangle. In our case, the length perpendicular to the triangle is the width.
Area of triangle = 1/2bh =
1/2(length)(height) =
(1/2)(2 m)(8m) =
8 m2
V = Triangle Area × width =
8 m2 × 8 m =
64m3
