Answer 1

Answer:

The volume of the pyramid is 1,260cm3

Answer 2

Answer:

The volume of the pyramid is $1,260\ cm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the triangular pyramid is equal to

$V=\frac{1}{3}BH$

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

$B=\frac{1}{2}bh$

we have

$b=14\ cm$

$h=18\ cm$

substitute

$B=\frac{1}{2}(14)(18)=126\ cm^{2}$

step 2

Find the volume

we have

$B=126\ cm^{2}$

$H=30\ cm$

substitute

$V=\frac{1}{3}BH$

$V=\frac{1}{3}(126)(30)=1,260\ cm^{3}$
