Question

Can anyone help me find the height of a pyramid made of 4 equilateral triangles? @Calculus1

Answer 1

yes you can ... first you have to know atleast the side of one of them

Answer 2

It's a general case. s=x

Answer 3

Why don't we say the sides = 1 for simplicity. I think I can do the general case if I know that.

Answer 4

\[\sqrt{3} s/2\]

Answer 5

That's the height of one of the sides, I need the height of the pyramid itself.

Answer 6

Is that object made only of eq. triangles?

Answer 7

Yes.

Answer 8

h=1/2sqrt(2)a,

Answer 9

a is the length of one of the sides
