Question

If the altitude is √7, find the volume. 36√7 cu. units 18√7 cu. units 12√7 cu. units

Answer 1

`Volume = 12√(7)` cubic units

Explanation:

Volume of the square pyramid is given as ⅓*area of base*height of pyramid.

Where,

Area of base = 6*6 = 36

Height of pyramid = altitude =
`√(7)` units

Plug the values into the formula to find volume.

`Volume = (1)/(3)*36*√(7)`

`Volume = 12*√(7)`

`Volume = 12√(7)` cubic units
