**Title: Determining the RMS Value of a Voltage Waveform**

**Description:**

**Objective:**
To determine the root mean square (RMS) value of a given voltage waveform depicted in Figure 14-24.

**Graph Explanation:**

- **Axes:**
  - The horizontal axis represents time, \( t \), marked from 0 to 24 with intervals indicating 6 units each.
  - The vertical axis represents voltage, \( v(t) \), marked from 0 to 6.

- **Waveform Description:**
  - The graph displays a series of triangular waveforms starting at the origin (0,0).
  - Each triangular waveform rises linearly to a peak voltage of 6 at a time interval of 3 (e.g., at \( t = 6 \)), then decreases linearly back to 0 over the next 3 time units.
  - This pattern repeats every 6 time units, forming a periodic waveform.

**Analysis:**
The question asks for the calculation of the RMS value of this periodic voltage waveform, useful for understanding the effective power of alternating currents.

**Note:** Further calculations or equations are required to determine the RMS value, using the formula specific to triangular waveforms.
