Answer:

Volume ≈ 33.33 cubic feet

Explanation:

The question is:

Find the volume of a right square pyramid with base square edges measuring 5 feet each and a height of the pyramid be 4 feet.

So, the base is a square with side length 5 feet.

And the height of the pyramid is 4 feet.

The volume of a pyramid is given by the formula:


V=(a^2 h)/(3)

Where

a is the square base side length (given as 5)

h is the height of the pyramid (given as 4)

Now we substitute and find the value:


V=(a^2 h)/(3)\\V=((5)^2 (4))/(3)\\V=33.33

The volume is around 33.33 cubic feet
