Geometry volume practice
A square pyramid has a base edge of 3m and a volume of 240m^3. What is the height of the pyramid?

Answer 1

yes the height is 80^^.

Answer 2

h = 80

Explanation:

Remark

The general Volume formula for a pyramid is V = 1/3 * B * h

Givens

base edge = 3 m

V = 240 m^2

Solution

V = 1/3 * B * h

B = s^2

B = base edge^2

B = 3^2

B = 9

240 = 1/3 * 9 * h multiply by 3

240 * 3 = 9 h Divide by 9

80 = h
