If the base of a right pyramid is triangle of sides 5 cm, 12 cm, 13 cm and its volume is 660cm³, then its height will be? |
25 cm 66 cm 22 cm 55 cm |
66 cm |
The base of the pyramid is a right angle triangle because 5, 12, 13 form triplet Area of base triangle = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × base × height = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 12 × 5 = 30 cm2 volume of pyramid = \(\frac{1}{3}\) × area of base × height of pyramid ⇒ 660 = \(\frac{1}{3}\) 30 × H ⇒ height (H) = 66 cm |
