A company designed a cheese container in the shape of a triangular pyramid. The base of the pyramid must have an are of 81 squar
e cm. The finished container must hold 324 cubic cm of cheese. To accomplish this, what is the height of the container?
1 answer:
To find the necessary height of the triangular pyramid you will use the formula for finding the volume of a pyramid and solve for the missing height.
V = 1/3Bh, where B is the area of the base.
324 = 1/3 x 81 x h
<u>324</u> = <u>27h</u>
27 27
h = 12 cm
The height of the container must be 12 centimeters.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 1/2x -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Half of x , less 5. (5 less just means subtract)
1. Use the Pythagoras theorem
13^2 = x^2 + 5^2
solve for x and youll get the height of the roof.
2. let x = length of the rpoe)-
x^2 = 9^2 + 12^2
3. Pythagoras again
20^2 = x^2 + 12^2
