I set up a tent (assume it’s a regular triangular prism) of length 2.2m. The triangular face of the tent is an isosceles triangle. The two identical sides are both 1.4m long and have an angle of 34degrees between them. Work out the volume of the tent -3sf

First work out the area of the triangular face using the formula 1/2 A B sin c:1/2 x 1.4 x 1.4 sin(34) = 0.548m2
recall volume of a regular prism = area of face x length
hence V = 0.548 x 2.2 = 1.21m3
