Respuesta :

Answer:

The volume of the pyramid is [tex]1,260\ cm^{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the triangular pyramid is equal to

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}BH[/tex]

where

B is the area of the triangular base

H is the height of the pyramid

step 1

Find the area of the base B

[tex]B=\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]

we have

[tex]b=14\ cm[/tex]

[tex]h=18\ cm[/tex]

substitute

[tex]B=\frac{1}{2}(14)(18)=126\ cm^{2}[/tex]

step 2

Find the volume

we have

[tex]B=126\ cm^{2}[/tex]

[tex]H=30\ cm[/tex]

substitute

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}BH[/tex]

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}(126)(30)=1,260\ cm^{3}[/tex]

Answer:

The volume of the pyramid is 1,260cm3
