Question

The VOLUME of the pyramid is 700 cm 3. What is thevalue of the HEIGHT?

Answer 1

It is given that the volume of the pyramid is 700 cubic centimeters.

The Formula for the volume of square pyramid is given by:

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

Where a is the side of base and h is the height

Here V=700 and a=10 so it follows:

`\begin{gathered} 700=(1)/(3)*10^2* h \\ h=(2100)/(100) \\ h=21 \end{gathered}`

Hence the height of the pyramid is 21 centimeters.
