    B = one-half (9) (6)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Volume of a triangular based pyramid = 1/3 * Base Area * Height

    Since the base of the pyramid is triangular in nature, the area of the base will be equivalent to the area of the triangle.

    Base area = Area of triangle = 1/2 * base * height

    Given the height of the triangle = 6

    Base of the triangle = 9

    Base area = 1/2 (9) (6)
