Question

A triangular pyramid has a height of 8 meters. If the triangle has a base of 4 meters and a height of 3 meters, what is the volume of the pyramid?

Answer 1

Since base is a triangle area of base $=\frac{b\times h}{2}=\frac{4\times 3}{2}=6m^2$

Volume of pyramid $=\frac{B\times h}{3}=\frac{48}{3}=16m^3$.
