The horizontal distance from the center of one of the faces of the tetrahedron to the edge of the tetrahedron = (1/3)s, where s is the side length of the base of the tetrahedron
The length of one side of the base of EFGH = sqrt [ (1/3 * s)^2 + (1/3 *s)^2 ] =
sqrt [ (2/9) s^2 ] = (sqrt (2) / 3) s
So the area of the base of of EFGH = (2/9)s^2
And the height of the pyramid = (1/3) height of the of the tetrahedron = (1/3) h
Volume of tetrahedron = (1/3)s^2 * h
18= (1/3) s^2 * h
s^2 * h = 54
Volume of pyramid EFGH =
(1/3) (2/9)s^2 * (1/3) h =
(2/81) s^2 * h =
(2/81) (54) = 2 (54 / 81) = 2 (2/3) = 4/3
