Answer:

Volume of square-based pyramid = 96 in³

Explanation:

Given:

Base side of square = 6 inch

Height of pyramid = 8 inch

Find:

Volume of square-based pyramid

Computation:

Area of square base = Side x Side

Area of square base = 6 x 6

Area of square base = 36 in²

Volume of square-based pyramid = (1/3)(A)(h)

Volume of square-based pyramid = (1/3)(36)(8)

Volume of square-based pyramid = (1/3)(36)(8)

Volume of square-based pyramid = (12)(8)

Volume of square-based pyramid = 96 in³
