Question

This composite figure is made of two identical pyramids attached at their bases. Each pyramid has a height of 2 units.

2 identical pyramids with rectangular bases are connected at their base. The height of the pyramid is 2. The lengths of the sides of the rectangle are 5 and 0.25 units.

Answer 1

The total volume of the solid is 1.67 cubic units.

Explanation:

Each pyramid with a height of 2 units and a rectangular base with dimensions of 5 units × 0.25 units.

Therefore, the volume of each pyramid will be
`(1)/(3) * \textrm {(Area of base rectangle)} * \textrm {Height}`

=
`(1)/(3) * (5 * 0.25) * 2 = 0.833` cubic units.

So, the total volume of the solid is (2 × 0.833) = 1.67 cubic units. (Answer)
