If the base of a Pyramid has an area of 144sq ft And if the slant higher of the pyramid is 10ft what would be the higher of the
pogonyaev

Answer:

the height of the pyramid is 8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the base of the pyramid to be square whose area is 144 sq ft

This means the side of the base would be √144 = 12 ft.

Now, if you will imagine a pyramid we can easily observe that

Height(H) , slant height( L=10 ft) and half of the side length( 6ft) make a right angle triangle. We can easily calculate height from Pythagoras theorem as

10^2 = H^2 +6^2

⇒ H^2 = 10^2-6^2 = 100-36 = 64

⇒ H = 8 ft

Therefore, the height of the pyramid is 8 ft
