v = ∫020100√3/4(20 - x)2/400dx = - √3(20 - x)3/48020 = 500√3/3
X is distance from base of height to the cross section
Seung hyun H.
asked 02/11/24Find the volume of a pyramid with a height of 20 feet whose base is an equilateral triangle with sides measuring 10 feet in length.
I should evaluate the volume using an integral. The answer is v=sqrt3/16 integral from 0 to 20 (20-x)^2 dx, but I can't understand why the answer looks like this. Please help me
