Answer:

16.6 in

Explanation:

The volume (V) of a pyramid is

V =
(1)/(3) area of base × h

where h is the perpendicular height and area of base = 14² = 196

here V = 980, so


(1)/(3) × 196h = 980 ( multiply both sides by 3 )

196h = 2940 ( divide both sides by 196 )

h = 15

Consider the right triangle formed by the height h from the vertex to the midpoint of the base and the slant height (s) ← the hypotenuse

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

s² = 15² + 7² = 225 + 49 = 274 ( take the square root of both sides )

s =
√(274) ≈ 16.6
