Volume of Right Triangular Prism

Consider a right triangular prism with a triangular base that has legs measuring 6 cm and 8 cm. The height of the prism is 10 cm. To determine the volume of this prism, you can use the formula for the volume of a prism, which is:

$V = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}$.

First, find the area of the triangular base using the formula for the area of a right triangle:

$A = \f\frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}$, where the base can be considered as one leg of the triangle and the height as the other leg.
