A paper weight is made in the shape of a triangular pyramid. The dimensions of the paper weight are shown. A triangular pyramid. The base has a base of 9 centimeters and height of 6 centimeters. The height of the pyramid is 7 centimeters. [Not drawn to scale] The formula for the volume of a triangular pyramid is V = one-third B h. Which expression can be used to find the value of B, the area of the base of the pyramid? B = one-half (9) (6) B = (9) (6) B = one-third (9) (7) B = (9) (7)

i understand 100% 10/10 hit or miss?

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

there is a formula i can give you:

it is r^2*n*sin(360/n) divided by 2 where r represents the "radius" and n is the number of sides.

plug them in:

(10sqrt(3))^2*6*sin(360/6) divided by 2

100*3*6*sin(60) divided by 2

900*sin(60)

900*sqrt(3)/2

450*sqrt(3)

approx is 779.4 cm^2

the given 6 = w/p is equivalent to 6p = w, where w is the total area of the walls and p is the area covered by a single can of paint.

knowing that 6 cans of paint will be needed, 6p = w becomes 6(6) = w = 36.   this tells us that the total area to be painted is 36 square units.
