Assuming that the prism is a right triangular prism and that the 3 of the numbers are the lengths of the sides of the triangle, and the 4th is the length of the prism,
Suppose the sides of the triangle are a, b and c units and let s = (a+b+c)/2
then area of the triangle = sqrt[s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c)]
and so, if the length of the prism is d,
its volume = d*sqrt[s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c)]
The volume of a triangular prism can be found with the following formula, in which a, b, and c are base sides and h is the height: V = 0.25h(-a4 + 2(ab)2 + 2(ac)2 - b4 + 2(bc)2 - c4)1/2
No, that will not give you the volume of a prism (since it's a triangular shape, not cuboid). For volume of a prism, you need to find the area of one of the end triangles, then multiply by the length of the prism.
A triangular prism has two triangular faces, a rectangular prism does not have any.
A triangular prism.
A triangular prism has a triangular cross-section. A rectangular prism has a rectangular cross-section.

Capacity generally implies volume in geometry. To calculate the volume of a triangular prism, find the area of one of its triangular bases and multiply it by the height of the shape.
It is a triangular prism.
it is called a triangular prism
A triangular prism can have a square or triangular base.
"triangular" is an adjective - it is not enough to define a shape. You can have a triangular pyramid or a triangular prism and there will be different methods to calculate their volumes.
A triangular prism has a triangle and a rectangular prism doesn't.
A triangular prism has two triangular faces, a rectangular prism does not have any.
A triangular prism.
A triangular prism has triangular bases, a heagonal prism has ... you guessed it! ... hexagonal bases.
A triangular prism has a triangular cross-section. A rectangular prism has a rectangular cross-section.
