1. **Find the volume of the triangular prism.**
The formula for the volume of a prism is:
$$V = B \times h$$
where $B$ is the area of the base and $h$ is the height (length) of the prism.
For a triangular base, the area is:
$$B = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}$$
Given:
- Triangle legs: 6 cm and 8 cm (right triangle)
- Prism length (height): 12 cm
Calculate the base area:
$$B = \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 8 = \frac{1}{2} \times 48 = 24 \text{ cm}^2$$
Calculate the volume:
$$V = 24 \times 12 = 288 \text{ cm}^3$$

2. **Find the volume of the cylinder with radius 8 in and height 17 in.**
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is:
$$V = \pi r^2 h$$
Given:
- Radius $r = 8$ in
- Height $h = 17$ in
Calculate the volume:
$$V = \pi \times 8^2 \times 17 = \pi \times 64 \times 17 = 1088\pi \approx 3417.3 \text{ in}^3$$

3. **Find the volume of the cylinder with diameter 15 mm and height 18 mm.**
First, find the radius:
$$r = \frac{15}{2} = 7.5 \text{ mm}$$
Use the volume formula:
$$V = \pi r^2 h = \pi \times 7.5^2 \times 18 = \pi \times 56.25 \times 18 = 1012.5\pi \approx 3180.2 \text{ mm}^3$$

**Final answers:**
1. Volume of triangular prism = $288$ cm$^3$
2. Volume of cylinder (8 in radius) = $3417.3$ in$^3$
3. Volume of cylinder (15 mm diameter) = $3180.2$ mm$^3$
