Answer:
4. 1.3 cm³
5. 621.2 mm³
6. 116.5 m³
Explanation:
The height to the peak of the pyramid is one side of the right triangle that has its hypotenuse equal to the slant height, and one leg equal to half the base side length. The Pythagorean theorem is used to find the height from the slant height (s) and the base length (b):
h = √(s² -(b/2)²)
The volume is found from the formula ...
V = (1/3)b²h
where b is the base length and h is the height found using the previous formula.
The tedious arithmetic is nicely done using a spreadsheet. Results are attached.
