Question

Find the volume of this square

based pyramid.
12 cm
10 cm
10 cm
V = [?] cm³

Answer 1

`400m^3`

Explanation:

Use the formula
`V=(1)/(3)Ah`

Where h=the height of the pyramid (12cm)

A=the base area of the pyramid, also known as the area of the square (10cm*10cm=100cm)

So, inserting this into the equation:

`V=(1)/(3) (100)(12)`

`V=(1)/(3) (1200)`

`V=400m^3`
