To find volume $ V $ use formula:
$$ V = \dfrac{ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a ^{ 2 } \cdot l }{ 2 } $$After substituting $ a = 6 $ and $ l = 8 $ we have:
$$ V =\dfrac{ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot 6 ^{ 2 } \cdot 8 }{ 2 } $$$$ V = \dfrac{ 36 \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot 8 }{ 2 }$$$$ V = \dfrac{ 288 \sqrt{ 3 } }{ 2 } $$$$ V = 144 \sqrt{ 3 } $$
