Question

What is the volume of this triangular pyramid

Answer 1

192 cubic feet

Explanation:

The volume V of a triangular pyramid is given by the formula:

V = (1/3) * base area * height

where base area is the area of the triangular base.

In this case, the triangular base has a length of 8 ft and a width of 8 ft, so it is a square with area:

base area = length * width = 8 ft * 8 ft = 64 sq ft

Substituting the given values into the formula, we get:

V = (1/3) * 64 sq ft * 9 ft

V = 192 cubic feet.

Therefore, the volume of the triangular pyramid is 192 cubic feet.

Answer 2

The right triangular pyramid volume is given by the formula V = 1 3 × B × h , where B is the area of the triangular base and h is the height (the distance from the apex to the base).
