Suppose that each of the bases of the triangular prism in Exercise 2 has an area of $3.4 \mathrm{cm}^{2}$ and that the altitude of the prism measures $1.2 \mathrm{cm} .$ Find the volume of the prism.
The area of the base of a right equilateral triangular prism is $16 \sqrt{3} \mathrm{~cm}^{2}$. If the height of the prism is $12 \mathrm{~cm}$, then the lateral surface area and the total surface area of the prism respectively are (1) $288 \mathrm{~cm}^{2},(288+32 \sqrt{3}) \mathrm{cm}^{2}$ (2) $388 \mathrm{~cm}^{2},(388+32 \sqrt{3}) \mathrm{cm}^{2}$ (3) $288 \mathrm{~cm}^{2},(288+24 \sqrt{3}) \mathrm{cm}^{2}$ (4) $388 \mathrm{~cm}^{2},(388+24 \sqrt{3}) \mathrm{cm}^{2}$
