Question

A triangular pyramid has a base area of 24 square meters and a height of 4 meters. What is the volume of the pyramid?

Answer 1

Answer:

32 cubic meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume  for any pyramid  is given by  following expression

volume of pyramid = 1/3( area of base of pyramid * height of pyramid)

________________________________

In the problem

base area of pyramid = 24 sq. m

height = 4 m

Therefore substituting the above given value in formula for volume of pyramid we have

volume of pyramid = 1/3( 24 sq. m * 4 m) = 8 sq. m * 4 m   (since 24/3 = 8)

volume of pyramid =  32 cubic meter.
