Question

What is the volume of the square pyramid shown below?

Answer 1

The answer is 135 cm cubed.

The equation is L * W * (H/3) = volume.

Answer 2

The volume of a square pyramid is given by the following formula:


`V = a^(2) (h)/(3)`

a is the side length of the square base, and h is the height of the pyramid.

Plug in your known values into the formula:


`a = 9, h = 5`

`V = 9^(2) * (5)/(3)`

`V = 81 * (5)/(3)`

`V = 135`

The volume of this square pyramid is 135 centimeters cubed.
