OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@chucho78 Can you help? xx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lemme c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k what is the formula of the pyramid?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is it not on the attachment?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no its says the width higt length and slant hight but no formula :3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No I dont Im awful at maths

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So we need the formula for the area of a triangle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

V = 1/3 A h

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A equals the l*w

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so since l=5 and w= 5 5*5=25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hight is 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So 25 is the volume or Area?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

area of the floor

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay...and what do we do for volume?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry i was checking for the formula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

V=1/3b^2h

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lets substitute them now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

V=1/3 (25^2) (3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And if I do that I get the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well are you looking for the volume?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you xx :)
