Answer:
Devin will need 9 cubes of wax.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the volume of the pyramid, you use (area of the base)* height of the pyramid divided by 3. You know the volume of a cube of wax is 32 cm^3. The volume of your pyramid is 270 cm^3. 270/32=8.4375.
Once you get 8.4375 cubes, you round to the next whole number, which is nine.
There's a couple ways to do this. These look like special triangles to me. Which should be the 30 60 90 triangle's which have the same ratios for their legs. The legs will always be square root three and one and the hypotenuse of two - I can't see what I'm typing for some reason so I will finish in a comment
