Question

Find the volume of the pyramid. in this case the base is a rectangle.

Answer 1

A

Given the figure in the attached image.

Recall that the volume of a Pyramid can be calculated using the formula;

`V=(lwh)/(3)`

Given in the figure;

`\begin{gathered} l=12\text{ ft} \\ w=4\text{ ft} \\ h=10\text{ ft} \end{gathered}`

Substituting the given values;

`\begin{gathered} V=(12*4*10)/(3)=(480)/(3) \\ V=160ft^3 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the volume of the Pyramid is;

`160ft^3`
