Which equation can be used to find the volume of this solid? A triangular prism. The triangular base has a base of 11 inches and height of 7 inches. The height is 9 inches. V = 11 times 9 times 7 V = 11 + 9 + 7

V = 11 times 9 times 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, a dimensional analysis must be done.

The volume has cube length as a unit, that is, l ^ 3

We analyze each option

V = base * height * height

ignoring what each one means, we know that each one is measured in length therefore:

V = L * L * L = L ^ 3 that is to say that in this way the volume can be found.

The other way is:

V = base + height + height

If we replace, we have to:

V = L + L + L = L, and the volume does not have units of length, therefore this option is not viable.

Which means that the option of V = 11 times 9 times 7 is correct.

I must mention, that the true way to calculate the volume in this case would be:

V = Base area * height

V = (base + height / 2) * height
