Question

Find the volume of the pyramid shown.

Answer 1

Volume of the shown pyramid is 40 square centimetre.

Explanation:

Given:- From given figure we can see that,

Base length of the pyramid (L) = 5 cm.

Base width of the pyramid (W)= 4 cm.

Height of the pyramid (H)= 6 cm.

To find:- Volume of the pyramid = ?

Solution:-

Let, Base length of the pyramid be L,

Base width of the pyramid be W,

and height of the pyramid be H

Now,

Formula for volume of pyramid =
`(Base\ length* Base\ width* Height\ of\ pyramid)/(3)`

Volume of pyramid =
`(L* W* H)/(3)`

Volume of pyramid =
`(5* 4* 6)/(3)`

Volume of pyramid =
`(120)/(3)`

Volume of pyramid = 40 sq.cm.

Therefore volume of the shown pyramid is 40 square centimetre.
