what is the volume im getting 6.9
find area of that triangle first
volume not area
It has to equal 2.3 * 4.5
to get volume you need to find triangle's area
can u explain
Well, to find volume, you first need to find area of the triangle. It is 2.3 sq units. Then, multiply that area by the length of the shape to get volume. = 2.3 * 4.5 cubic units.
you are right
6,9
but i thought it was 1/3 height x area of base
1/3( height x area of base)
That may be for a different shape. :-)
Don't rely on random formulas. Think about the shape in question and figure out the right way to compute the volume.
it says it is for a pyramid
The shape is not a pyramid.
oh what is it???
It does not matter what it is. The shape's volume needs to be setup as area of that triangle multiplied over its length.
oh thank you
area of ground multiplied by height, so it can be any form even figure with n-sides
