Question

Which of the following equations could be used to find the volume of the figure below?

A: V= (6x4/2) x 9
B: V= (6x5) x 9
C: V= (6x5) x 9
D: V= 6 x 9 x 4 x 5

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

Find cross-sectional area first:

Area of triangle = 6x4/2

Multiply the cross-sectional area by height which in this case is 9ft so

(6x4/2) x 9
