Answer:
8 in
Explanation:
First of all we have to find the area of the base triangle.
For do this we can use this formula:
A = (base edge x base height)/2
A = (9 x 4)/2 = 18 in^2
The formula for find the volume of a pyramid is:
V= Base area x height)/3
So the height can be find in this way
3 x V = base area x height
height = (3 x V)/base area
height = (3 x 48)/18 = 8 in
