Use the formula for the volume of the prism.
780mm^3
The given figure is a prism.
The volume of a prism can be calculated using the following formula. V=Bh First, we can calculate the area of the base B. Note, the base is a right triangle, so we can calculate its area using the formula for area of a triangle. By substituting b with 8 and c with 15, we can find B.
We calculated that the area of the base B is 60mm^2. We are also given that the height h equals 13. Let's substitute these values into the formula and find V.
The volume of the prism is 780mm^3.
