Volume is base times height. Use the triangle 10-10-10 as the base
OpenStudy (anonymous):
It is an equilateral triangle. Therefore the area is 1/2 side * side * sqrt(3)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
This is 1/2 * 10 * 10 * sqrt (3)

? I don't get it. I got 50....

same here

How did you get 50? you need to multiply 50 by sqrt of 3 and then multiply it 29
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Should be something like 50 * 29 * sqrt (3)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
24389?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well, sqrt of 3 is 1.732 roughly

50*29 is 1450
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so multiply 1450 by 1.732
OpenStudy (anonymous):
242.48?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1450*1.732
OpenStudy (anonymous):
plug that into a calculator

i did, and thats what i got.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you should get something larger than 1450 because you are multiplying by a number over 1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
copy paste what I wrote into google search
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2511.4?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
Now which answer is pretty much that?
