Volume is equal to the area of one end times the length of the prism.
1/2BH=A
V=AL
V=volume
B= base of the triangle
H=height of the triangle
L=length of the prism
A=area of the triangle

The formula for the volume of any prism is area of the base of the prism times the height of the prism.
V = Bh
where B is the area of the base of the prism and h is the height of the prism.

For a right (vertical) triangular prism, volume = Area x height.
For an oblique prism, Volume = (area of base x height)/3

If base is a triangle of area, A and perpendicular height = h, volume,V, is given by:-
V = (1/3).A.h
