Question

What is the volume of an oblique square pyramid with base edges 25 ft and height 24 ft?

Answer 1

24 and 25 divide will give you the final answer

Answer 2

`15000\text{ ft}^3`

Explanation:

We are asked to find the volume of an oblique square pyramid with base edges 25 ft and height 24 ft.

We know that area of an oblique prism equals to the product of base area and height of prism.

`\text{Volume of oblique prism}=\text{Base area* Height}`

Since base of prism is square, so area of base would be:
`(25\text{ ft})^2=625\text{ ft}^2`.

`\text{Volume of oblique prism}=625\text{ ft}^2* 24\text{ ft}`

`\text{Volume of oblique prism}=15000\text{ ft}^3`

Therefore, the volume of our given oblique prism would be
`15000\text{ ft}^3`.
