Question

Determine the volume and the total surface area of the square pyramid.if its perpendicular height is 12cm and square length is 5cm​

Answer 1

Volume = 100 cm³

​Surface area of the square pyramid = 145 cm²

Explanation:

Given:

Perpendicular height = 12cm

Square length = 5cm

Find:

Volume

​Surface area of the square pyramid

Computation:

Area of base = side²

Area of base = 5²

Area of base = 25 cm²

Volume = (1/3)(A)(h)

Volume = (1/3)(25)(12)

Volume = 100 cm³

​Surface area of the square pyramid = A + 1/2(P)(h)

Perimeter square pyramid = 4(s)

Perimeter square pyramid = 4(5)

Perimeter square pyramid = 20 cm

​Surface area of the square pyramid = 25 + 1/2(20)(12)

​Surface area of the square pyramid = 145 cm²
