find the volume of a triangular prism in swift

To find the volume of a triangular prism, you need to multiply the area of the base by the height of the prism. In the case of a triangular prism, the base is a triangle, so the formula for the area of a triangle (1/2 * base * height) can be used. Therefore, the formula for finding the volume of a triangular prism is:

main.swift
volume = (1/2 * base * height) * height_prism

Here's an example function in Swift that takes in the base, height, and height of the triangular prism and returns the volume:

main.swift
func findVolumeOfTriangularPrism(base: Double, height: Double, heightPrism: Double) -> Double {
    let area = 0.5 * base * height
    let volume = area * heightPrism
    return volume
}

To use this function and find the volume of a triangular prism with a base of 8, height of 10, and height of the prism of 6:

main.swift
let volume = findVolumeOfTriangularPrism(base: 8, height: 10, heightPrism: 6)
print(volume) // Output: 240.0
