Answer:

=579.1 cm^3

Explanation:

V = Bh

We need to find the area of the base

The base is the triangle

B = 1/2 bh

We can find the length of the bottom by using the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

9^2 + b^2 = 14^2

b^2 = 14^2 - 9^2

b^2 = 115

Taking the square root

b = sqrt(115)

B = 1/2 bh

=1/2 sqrt(115) *9

B =48.25712383

V = Bh

V = 48.25712383 * 12

=579.0854859

To the nearest tenth

=579.1 cm^3
