The sides and base are all 8. d is in the middle of the pyramid with a dotted line down the middle. I am just super confused on how to do this problem. I have tried to find the formula in my textbook but can't figure it out. Thank you \n" ); document.write( "

I believe we are looking for the long side of a 30 60 90 triangle.\r
