Question

A pyramid has a height of 10 inches and a base with an area of 21 square inches.Find the volume of the pyramid.35 in 370 in?210 in105 in 3

Answer 1

The formula to calculate the volume of a pyramid is

`V=(1)/(3)* Base\text{ Area }* Height`

The question gives the base area as 21 sq. inches and the height as 10 inches.

Therefore, we can calculate the volume by substituting the values as

`\begin{gathered} V=(1)/(3)*21*10 \\ V=70in^3 \end{gathered}`

The volume is 70 cubic inches.

The correct option is the SECOND OPTION.
