Enter your answer in the box

Answer 1

Explanation:

The volume is
`V = (1)/(3) b^(2) h`

Known facts:

• length of base: 5cm
• height of pyramid: 6cm

Let us plug in the known value into the pyramid

`v=(1)/(3) * 5^(2) *6 = 50` cubic centimeters

The volume of a square pyramid is 50 cubic centimeters!
