Given is a square pyramid with a base length of 5 centimeters and a height of 6 centimeters.

The volume formula of square pyramid is given by :-


volume = (1)/(3) (base\; area)(height)

Base area would be a square of side length equal to 5 centimeters.

Area of square = (side)² = 5 × 5 = 25 squared centimeters.

Now, volume of square pyramid =
(1)/(3) (25)(6) = 50 cubic centimeters.

So, final answer is 50 cubic centimeters.
