Question

Determine the height of the camping tent if the volume is 360 feet^3, the triangular door opening is 6 ft wide, and the tent is 12 feet long

Answer 1

Height of tent = 10feet

Explanation:

Given the following;

Volume of the triangular tent = 360ft³

If the triangular door opening is 6 ft wide, and the tent is 12 feet long

Area of the triangular door = 1/2lw

Area of the triangular door = 1/2 * 6 * 12

Area of the triangular door = 3*12

Area of the triangular door = 36ft²

Volume = Base area * Height of tent

360 = 36 * Height of tent

Height of tent = 360/36

Height of tent = 12feet
