The volume of the prism is #202.5# cubic feet.

The volume of any prism can be found by multiplying the area of

one of the bases by its height. In the case of a triangular prism,

each base is a triangle. Volume #V=a*h # where # a# is the area

of one triangular end face and #h# is the height of the prism.

#; l=9,w=5,h=9 :. a=1/2*l*w= 1/2*9*5=45/2#

# :. V=45/2*9=202.5# cubic feet.

The volume of the prism is #202.5# cubic feet. [Ans]
