Question 1034963
Let's find you a pyramid made of four equilateral triangles with a total area of 1800
A triangular pyramid has 4 faces (triangles). Let each triangle be:
2000/4 = 450 is the area for each triangle
Area of the triangle:
1/2bh = 450 Since the sides of an equilateral triangle are identical, we can re-write the equation: 
1/2(b^2) = 450, b^2/2 = 450, b^2 = 900, b = 30 NOTE This is our Base as well as our Height.
Proof: 
Area of the triangle: 
1/2bh
1/2(30*30)= 450 Correct
``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Now that we have the area of the sides, we can calculate the volume:
1/3(Area*height)= Volume
1/3(450*30)= 4500 is your volume
````````````````````````````````````````````
and there you have it.
