Sure, do you know that volume is area of the base times height?

3. order Group Title

Do you know how to get the area of a triangle?

4. FoolForMath Group Title

If algebra is right, $$7 \sqrt{3} \; m^3$$should be the answer.

5. order Group Title

Yes, I got 12.12, which is the same. Because you use hypothagorous theroem....

6. mjneedshelp Group Title

yea i do

7. mjneedshelp Group Title

thanks

8. FoolForMath Group Title

@order: what is " hypothagorous theroem"?

I did not get it.... any one can explain?

10. order Group Title

haha, sorry. Pythagorous theorem... My teacher used to call it Hypothagorous theorem... Can't get it out now!

11. FoolForMath Group Title

lol, you should sue that teacher :P

12. order Group Title

Yes! It's stuck. And I can't even spell pythagoras correctly :S

lol

perpendicular is sqrt 3... if you ll multiply it with 7 then it'll give area of plane?

15. order Group Title

Area of the base * Height * 1/3

16. order Group Title

sorry

17. anisah Group Title

so that = 21?

I got it.............. HATS OFF to @order God bless you

And what I thought before I got confused. @waqassaddique I think you got confused with a pyramid and a triangular prism.

23. order Group Title

Yes. Sorry. I was confused for a second between a pyramid and prism.. Won't happen again! :)

yes...... No problem @order, humans commit mistakes so we did

26. order Group Title

It's that answer because the area of the base is the square root of 3 and 7 is the height.

@order : legend of mathematics...well done... thanks for your time for making my dull mind to understand

28. order Group Title

No problem! You might just have a tired head :p not a dull one.
