Question

billy was given a Toblerone candy. what is the volume of the candy shaped like and equilateral triangular prism. h=9cm h=6cm and w=22cm

Answer 1

$Volume=594cm^3$

Explanation

Step 1

as this is a equilateral triangle, every side measures 9 cm

so, the volume of the prism is

$\begin{gathered} \text{Volume}=\text{area of the trianlge}\cdot length \\ \text{Volume}=(\frac{base\cdot hegith}{2}\cdot\text{length)} \end{gathered}$

then,Let

base=9 cm

heigth=6 cm

length=22 cm

now, replace.

$\begin{gathered} \text{Volume}=(\frac{base\cdot hegith}{2}\cdot\text{length)} \\ \text{Volume}=(\frac{9cm\cdot6\text{ cm}}{2}\cdot\text{22 cm)} \\ \text{Volume}=(\frac{54cm^{^2}}{2})\cdot22 \\ Volume=594cm^3 \\ \end{gathered}$

I hope this helps you
