#Find the height and width of a triangle base. Look at the triangle and write down the base width and height. For example, your triangle might have a base of 8 cm and a height of 9 cm.<ref>https://www.ck12.org/geometry/volume-of-triangular-prisms/lesson/Volume-of-Triangular-Prisms-MSM7/</ref>[[Image:Calculate the Volume of a Triangular Prism Step 1 Version 3.jpg|center]]
