Question

the length of each side of the base of a square pyramid is 20 m. the pyramid is 30 m tall.the volume of the pyramid is ___ cubic meters.

Answer 1

The volume of a pyramid is

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

Where a = 20 and h = 30.

`V=(1)/(3)\cdot20^2\cdot30=400\cdot10=4,000m^3`

Hence, the volume of the pyramid is 4,000 cubic meters.
