If you know the lengths of all sides, use the Heron's formula to find the area of the triangular base: Length * Triangular base area given three sides (SSS) It's this well-known formula mentioned before: Length * Triangular base area given the altitude of the triangle and the side upon which it is dropped Our triangular prism calculator has all of them implemented. A general formula is volume = length * base_area the one parameter you always need to have given is the prism length, and there are four ways to calculate the base - triangle area. In the triangular prism calculator, you can easily find out the volume of that solid.
