Discovery Project: The Geometry of a Tetrahedron
In this video I go over the Discovery Project titled The Geometry of a Tetrahedron. Discovery Projects are advanced math problems in each chapter of my calculus book, and this one is part of the Vectors and Geometry of Space chapter. This project involves 3 Questions regarding the tetrahedron, which is a triangular pyramid. The first question involves finding the areas of each triangular face using the Cross Product. The second question involves finding the volume of a tetrahedron when written in coordinate vector form. And the third question involves deriving the 3D version of the Pythagorean Theorem, which is: the 3 triangular areas squared at a vertex sum up to equal the square of the opposite triangular area!
