In this case, I would break the problem into a big box that’s not there and a triangular prism. We imagine this box as if the triangular slope isn’t there, and instead the pool is just 3 meters deep everywhere. The dimensions of the big box are 50 meters wide, 25 meters long, and 3 meters deep to allow for diving. When we run the volume calculation, then, we find:

Now we notice that the box that’s not there has a triangle prism that needs to be chopped away. That means, in a way, we need to calculate to take away the part that isn’t there from the box that already isn’t there. We’ve got a right triangle, so that means it’s time for the Pythagorean theorem? Not this time. I like your enthusiasm, though. No, in this case, we just need the plain old triangle equation:
