Question

A tent is in the shape of a triangular pyramid with a square footprint (base). the tent is 6 feet high and has a volume of 128 cubic feet. what is the length of the base?

Answer 1

You can solve for the base by inputting all the values you know into the volume formula for a triangular pyramid, which is:

(1/3)bh = V    

where b = base and h = height.

(1/3)b(6) = 128
2b = 128
b = 64 feet.
