Question

Find the height of a square pyramid that has a volume of 32 cubic feet and a base length of 4 feet. (1 point)

Answer 1

h =6 ft

Explanation:

The volume of a square pyramid is given by

V = 1/3 Bh where B is the area of the base

32 = 1/3 (4*4)h

32 = 1/3 *16*h

32 =16/3 h

Multiply each side by 3/16 to isolate h

3/16*32 = 3/16*16/3 h

6 =h
