Question

Lots of points please answer!!!

The Great Pyramid of Giza is a square pyramid located by El Giza, Egypt. The height of the pyramid is currently 455.4 feet. The base is a square with side length of 755.9 feet. Find the volume of the Great Pyramid of Giza. Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

V = 755.9 x 755.9 x (455.4/3).

V = 571,384.81 x (151.8)

V = 86,736,214.158 ft

Answer 2

The volume of a pyramid is length * width * h/3

Since the base is a square the length and width are the same.

So, V = 755.9 * 755.9 * (455.4/3).

V = 571,384.81 * (151.8)

V = 86,736,214.158 ft
