Question

The formula for the volume of

a square pyramid is .
Rewrite the formula in terms of h.
Then find the height of a square
pyramid with volume V = 400 cm3
and side length s = 10 cm.

Answer 1

The measure of height of square pyramid is 12 cm

Explanation:

Given as :

The volume of square pyramid = 400 cm³

The measure of its side length = 10 cm

Let The measure of its height = h

So, From the formula of square pyramid

Volume =
`(1)/(3)* side^(2)* height`

Or, 400 cm³ =
`(1)/(3)* 10^(2)* h`

Or, 400 × 3 = h × 100

Or, h =
`(1200)/(100)` = 12 cm

Hence The measure of height of square pyramid is 12 cm Answer
