Solution:As we know the volume of pyramid is given by the formula:
V=%281%2F3%29%2AB%2AH, where B is the area of base equal to 36 square ft. and H the
height of pyramid, we are asking to find. Substitute in our formula:
126.97=%281%2F3%29%2836%29%2AH, where 126.97=12*H => H=126.97/12=10.58 ft.
Answer:The height of pyramid is 10.58 feet.
Done.
