Find the surface area and volume for the following prism. Notice that the base is an isosceles triangle.

 

This image depicts a three-dimensional geometric shape known as a triangular prism. It includes the following dimensions:

- The triangular face on the side has a height labeled as 5 units.
- The base of the triangular face is labeled as 6 units.
- Another side of the triangular face is marked as 4 units, indicating this is a right triangle because there is a right angle marked between the 4-unit side and 6-unit base.
- The prism has a length of 14 units, which is the length of the rectangle that forms the sides of the prism.

The dashed lines indicate hidden edges within the prism, showing that the shape has depth and is not just a flat surface. The dotted line inside the triangular face represents the height from the right angle to the hypotenuse (5 units).

This diagram is often used in educational contexts to teach students about the properties and volume of prisms.
