A prism has an equilateral triangular base. The side of the triangle is 8 cm, and the height of the prism is 14 cm. The volume of the prism is
Let 's' be the side of the triangle, here s = 8 cm and height h = 14 cm
Area of the base=A=√34×s2
⇒A=√34×82
⇒A=√34×64
⇒A=√3×16
⇒A=16√3 cm2
Volume=A×h =16√3×14 =224√3 cm3
