Question

What is the volume of atriangular pyramid that is6 inches tall and has abase area of 7 squareinches?cubic inchesVolume of a pyramid: V = {Bh (Where "B" is the area of the pyramid's base.)

Answer 1

Volume of a Pyramid is given as

`\begin{gathered} V=(1)/(3)Bh \\ \text{Where V = volume of the pyramid} \\ B=basearea=7in^2 \\ h=\text{ height = 6 inches } \end{gathered}`

Substituting the values for height and base area, we have

`\begin{gathered} V=(1)/(3)Bh \\ V=(1)/(3)*7*6 \\ 6\text{ divides 3, we have 2, } \\ V=7*2 \\ V=14in^3 \end{gathered}`

Hence, the answer is 14 cubic-inches
