What is mean by Multiplication?

Multiplication means to add number to itself a particular number of times. Multiply will be viewed as a process of repeated addition.

We know that;

The volume of the triangular pyramid = 1/3 × Base area × Height

Here, The base area is,

⇒ 1/2 × 10 × 12

⇒ 60 in²

And, The value of height = 17 in.

Thus, We get;

The volume of the triangular pyramid = 1/3 × Base area × Height

The volume of the triangular pyramid = 1/3 × 60 × 17

The volume of the triangular pyramid = 340 in³

The volume of any pyramid can be defined as: [tex]V = \frac{1}{3} Bh[/tex] where V is volume, B is the area of the base of the pyramid, and h is the height of the pyramid.

In our problem:
B = area of the triangular Base
B = (.5)(12)(10)
B = 60

h = 17

[tex]V= \frac{1}{3} (60)(17)[/tex]
V = 340in³
Choice B
