What is the volume of the right prism with height h=14 cm, if the base of the prism is a triangle ∆ABC with side AB=9 cm and altitude to that side h(a)= 6 cm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

1.  The base area  B = %281%2F2%29%2Aabs%28AB%29%2Ah%28a%29 = %281%2F2%29%2A9%2A6 = 27 cm%5E2.

2.  The volume = B*h = 27*14 = . . .
