<h3><u>Question:</u></h3>

A pyramid has a square base with sides of length s. The height of the pyramid is equal to 1/2 of the length of a side on the base. Which formula represents the volume of the pyramid?

<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

<em><u>The formula represents the volume of the pyramid is:</u></em>

V=\frac{1}{6}s^3

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

<em><u>The volume of square pyramid is given by formula:</u></em>

V = \frac{1}{3} a^2h

Where, "h" is the height of pyramid

"a" is the length of side of base

Here given that, pyramid has a square base with sides of length s

Therefore,

a = s

The height of the pyramid is equal to 1/2 of the length of a side on the base

h = \frac{1}{2} \times s\\\\h = \frac{s}{2}

<em><u>Thus the volume of pyramid becomes:</u></em>

V = \frac{1}{3} \times s^2 \times \frac{s}{2}\\\\V = \frac{s^3}{6}

\boxed{V=\frac{1}{6}s^3}

Thus the  formula  represents the volume of the pyramid is \frac{s^3}{6}
