Answer:

The volume of the pyramid is 5 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the triangle base dimensions are 1 inche and 5 inches, and the height of the pyramid is 6 inches, the volume would be

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}Bh[/tex]

Where [tex]B[/tex] is the area of the base (triangle) and [tex]h[/tex] is the height.

[tex]B=\frac{1}{2}bh =\frac{1}{2}(1)(5)=2.5 \ in^{2}[/tex]

Then,

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}(2.5)(6)=5 \ in^{3}[/tex]

Therefore, the volume of the pyramid is 5 cubic inches.
