Question

Calculate the volume of the following triangular pyramid.

  1. 3400 cubic in    
  2. 566.67 cubic in    
  3. 1133.33 cubic in    
  4. 1700 cubic in    

hintHint:

The volume of a triangular pyramid(prism) is given by 1 third cross times a r e a space o f space t h e space b a s e space x space h e i g h t space o f space t h e space p y r a m i d

The correct answer is: 566.67 cubic in


    Area of the base triangle is fraction numerator 1 over denominator 2 end fraction cross times b cross times h
    equals fraction numerator 1 over denominator 2 end fraction cross times 17 cross times 10
    = 85 in2
    Volume of the pyramid = fraction numerator 1 over denominator 3 end fraction cross times 85 cross times 20
    = 566.67 cubic in
