Question

What is the volume of this square pyramid?

Answer 1

the square pyramid is 48cm

Answer 2

Answer: The answer is (A)
`48~\textup{cm}^3.`

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the volume of the square pyramid shown in the figure.

We know that the volume of a square pyramid with edge length of the base as 'a' units and height 'h' units is given by

`V=(1)/(3)a^2h.`

Here, a = 6 cm and h = 4 cm.

Therefore, the volume of the given square pyramid will be

`V=(1)/(3)* 6^2* 4=2* 24=48~\textup{cm}^3.`

Thus, (A) is the correct option.
