Answer:
9.22 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for a pyramid is (base * height) / 3. Therefore, because it's a square, the base is 16, and thus the height divided by 3 = 3. 3 * 3 = 9, so the height is 9. Now we have a right triangle.
If the base edge = 4, half of the base edge is 2. Applying the Pythagorean Theorem, 2^2 + 9^2 = x^2 so then 4 + 81 = x^2. The square root of 85 is approximately 9.22 meters.
