The base of a straight triangular prism is a right-angled triangle with legs 0.7 cm

The base of a straight triangular prism is a right-angled triangle with legs 0.7 cm and 2.4 cm, the lateral edges of the prism are 10 cm. Find the volume of the prism.

Let us determine how many square centimeters the base area of the indicated straight triangular prism equals, knowing that, by definition, the area of a right triangle is half the product of its legs:

1/2 * 0.7 * 2.4 = 0.84.

Let us determine how many cubic centimeters the volume of the indicated straight triangular prism is, knowing by the condition of the problem that the length of the lateral edge is 10 centimeters:

0.84 * 10 = 8.4.

Answer: The volume of a straight triangular prism is 8.4 cm3.
