The regular

The regular triangular prism has a base in the shape of an isosceles triangle with a base of 86 mm and 6.4 cm arms; the height of the prism is 24 cm. Calculate its volume.

Final Answer:

V =  489.1941 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} a=86\text{mm}\to \text{cm}=86:10\text{cm}=8.6\text{cm} \\ r=6.4\text{cm} \\ h=24\text{cm} \\ {h}_1=\sqrt{r^2-(a/2{)}^2}=\sqrt{6.4^2-(8.6/2{)}^2}\doteq 4.7403\text{cm} \\ {S}_1=\frac{h_1\cdot a}{2}=\frac{4.7403\cdot 8.6}{2}\doteq 20.3831{\text{cm}}^2 \\ V=S_1\cdot h=20.3831\cdot 24=489.1941{\text{cm}}^3 \end{gathered}$$
