Question

Find the volume of the composite solid.

Answer 1

Answer:

768 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Separate the shapes

We can first separate the triangular pyramid from the rectangular prism.

We can calculate them separately.

Calculate

The volume of the triangular pyramid is the base multiplied by the height divided by 3. The base of the pyramid has the same base as the prism so:

8 * 8 = 64

Then we need the height which is 6 so:

64 * 6/3 = 64 * 2 = 128 m^2

Then we calculate the volum of the prism; the formula for that side times side time side:

8 * 8 * 10 = 640 m^2

The total volume is them added up:

128 + 640 = 768 m^2
