Answer 1

To find the area of the triangular base, you need to calculate the area of the base triangle shown in the net.

The base of the triangular pyramid is a right-angled triangle with base length 8 inches and height 6 inches.

Using the formula for the area of a triangle (Area = 0.5 * base * height), the area of the base triangle is:

Area = 0.5 * 8 * 6
Area = 24 square inches

Therefore, the area of the triangular base is 24 in. squared.
