Answer:

Volume of square based pyramid = 116.62 cm³

Explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of square base = 16.9 cm

Height of pyramid = 19.6 cm

Find:

Volume of square based pyramid

Computation:

Perimeter of square base = 16.9 cm

4[Side] = 16.9

Side = 4.225 cm

Area of square = Side x Side

Area of square = 4.225 x 4.225

Area of square = 17.85 cm²

Volume of square based pyramid = [Area of square][Height of pyramid] / 3

Volume of square based pyramid = [17.85][19.6] / 3

Volume of square based pyramid = 349.86 /3

Volume of square based pyramid = 116.62 cm³
