Let $ABCD$ be a regular tetrahedron. Let $E$, $F$, $G,$ $H$ be the centers of faces $BCD$, $ACD$, $ABD$, $ABC$, respectively. The volume of pyramid $DEFG$ is $18.$ Find the volume of pyramid $EFGH$

We can easily set up an equation to do this problem. 

 

We can do

\(\Delta EFG \cdot \frac{2h}{3}=18\\ \Delta EFG =\frac{3\cdot 18}{2h}\\ V_{EFGH}=\Delta EFG\cdot \frac{1}{3}h\\ [EFGH]=\frac{3\cdot 18}{2h}\cdot \frac{1}{3}h\\ [EFGH]=9\)

 

So 9 is our answer!

 

Thanks! :)
