To find the height of the oblique triangular pyramid, we can use the formula for the volume of a pyramid:
[
V = frac{1}{3} times text{Base Area} times text{Height}
]
We’re given:
– Volume ( V = frac{88}{3} ) cubic units
– Base Area = 4 square units
Plugging these values into the formula:
[
frac{88}{3} = frac{1}{3} times 4 times text{Height}
]
Now, simplify the equation:
1. Multiply both sides by 3 to eliminate the fraction:
[
88 = 4 times text{Height}
]
2. Now, divide both sides by 4:
[
text{Height} = frac{88}{4} = 22 text{ units}
]
So, the height of the pyramid is 22 units.

To find the height of the oblique triangular pyramid, we can use the formula for the volume of a pyramid:
[
V = frac{1}{3} times text{Base Area} times text{Height}
]
We know the volume (V = frac{88}{3}) cubic units and the base area = 4 square units. We can plug these values into the formula and solve for the height (h):
[
frac{88}{3} = frac{1}{3} times 4 times h
]
Now, let’s simplify this:
Multiply both sides by 3 to eliminate the fraction:
[
88 = 4 times h
]
Now, divide both sides by 4:
[
h = frac{88}{4} = 22 text{ units}
]
So, the height of the pyramid is 22 units.
