Question

Thisbeach toy is a squarepyramid. It has aheight of 4 inches andthe base has sidelengths of 4 inches. What is the Volume?

Answer 1

Let's begin by identifying key information given to us:

This is a square pyramid

Height (h) = 4 in

Base (b) = 4 in

The volume of the figure is calculated as shown below:

`\begin{gathered} V=(1)/(3)b^2h \\ V=(1)/(3)*4^2*4 \\ V=(1)/(3)*16*4 \\ V=(64)/(3)=21(1)/(3)=21.33 \\ V=21.33in^2 \end{gathered}`
