volume of a triangle

In geometry we come across various shapes,sizes and structures,in this blog w will learn about volume of a triangle, In two dimensional plane figures, only the area could be calculated. The volume could not be calculated for any of the two dimensional plane figures. In two dimensional triangle only the base and height are present.The two dimensional triangle is same as the three dimensional pyramid.

In three dimensions, the triangle be called as pyramid which has lengh,breadth and height. Hence to find the volume of a triangle, we have to imagine the pyramid and substitute the values in the volume of the pyramid fomula.Let us see sample problems to find the volume of triangle.Next we will learn about difference quotient,The skill to set up and simplify difference quotients is necessary for calculus students.This is from the difference quotient that the basic formulas for derivatives are developed. In the next blog we will learn about percentage change calculator.Hope you like the above example of volume of a triangle
