Area = bh/2
(9.9 x 5.5)÷2 = 27.225 ft^2
Answer:
The length = The width = The height ≈ 5.8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a rectangular pyramid, V = l × w × h
The surface area of the pyramid = 2 × l × h + 2 × w × h + 2 × l × w = 200
∴ l × h + w × h + l × w = 200/2 = 100
We have that the maximum volume is given when the length, width, and height are equal and one length is not a fraction of the other. Therefore, we get;
At maximum volume, l = w = h
∴ l × h + w × h + l × w = 3·l² = 100
l² = 100/3
l = 10/√3
Therefore, the volume, v = l³ = (10/√3)³
The length = The width = The height = 10/√3 cm ≈ 5.8 cm
Depends on if you want it rounded.

Answer:
5676.16 cm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of any prism is given by the formula ...
V = Bh
where B is the area of one of the parallel bases and h is the perpendicular distance between them. Here, the base is a triangle, so its area will be ...
B = 1/2·bh
where the b and h in this formula are the base and height of the triangle, 28 cm and 22.4 cm.
Then the volume is ...
V = (1/2·(28 cm)(22.4 cm))·(18.1 cm) = 5676.16 cm^3
_____
You will note that this is half the product of the three dimensions, so is half the volume of a cuboid with those dimensions. Perhaps you can see that if you took another such prism and placed the faces having the largest area against each other, you would have a cuboid of the dimensions shown.
