Question

4. Find the volume
6 in
18 in.
8 in.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Typically, receiving 3 dimensions like this and being asked to find the volume indicates the volume of a rectangular prism. If that's the case, then for a rectangular prism of those dimensions we get

A = (6 in)(18 in)(8 in) = 864 in^3.

But if you are told that the prism is triangular, I will assume that the AREA of the base is 6 in by 18 in and that the height is 8 in.

Then the volume of this triangular prism is V = (1/3)(6 in)(18 in)(8 in), or

846/3 in^3, or 288 in^3.

Answer 2

Answer: The volume of this pyramid is 288 in^3

The Volume of a pyramid is the length, width, and height multiplied together and divided by 3. In this case, it would be

6*18*8= 864/3 which is 288 in^3.
