Question

What is the volume of this square pyramid?

Answer 1

The formula for finding the Volume of square pyramid is given by :

$V = a^{2} \frac{h}{3}$

where a is base edge and,

h = height.

We are given in the figure,

base edge = 18cm

Height =12 cm

So plugging these values in the formula for volume , we have

$V = (18)^{2} \frac{12}{3}$

On solving we get ,

Volume of square pyramid = 1296 cm³.

So first option is the correct choice .

Answer 2

That would be A. 1296 cm.
