a) a = length x width
because it's a square, the length and width are the same

a = 55 x 55
a = 3025 ft²

b) volume of pyramid = 1/3 x base x height
v = 1/3 x 3025 x 460
v = 463 833.33

hope this helps : )

Answer:

b)

Explanation:

(a)


the area of a square = s² ( where s is the length of side )


area = 55² = 3025 ft²


(b)


the volume (V) of a pyramid is calculated using


V = \frac1/3 × area of base × height


= \frac1/3 × 3025 × 460


= 463 833 ft³ ( to nearest cubic foot )
