60

Explanation

The area of a triangle is calculated using the formula . Importantly, the height is a perpendicular line between the base and the opposite point. In a right triangle like this one, you're in luck: the triangle as drawn already has that perpendicular line as one of the two sides. So here we will calculate . That gives us an answer of 24.

3

Calculate the volume of the provided figure.

9

Explanation

In order to solve this problem, we need to recall the volume formula for a cube:

Now that we have the correct formula, we can substitute in our known values and solve:
