Build Your Own Right Triangular Prism (V2)!

The applet below lets you build a right triangular prism with the specifications listed. Explore! You can also use this resource to assess results of any problems you complete that for which you need to find a triangular prism's lateral area (LA), total surface area (TSA), and/or volume (V). To explore this resource in Augmented Reality, see the directions below this applet.

TO EXPLORE IN AUGMENTED REALITY:

IMPORTANT! Use the prism height, triangle height, and one side sliders to alter the prism height, triangle height, and purple side (respectively). The b slider controls the horizontal side (edge) of the triangle. Note b = 6 to start. To show the TSA, LA, and V values, simply select them respectively.
