Question

Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the side length of the base is 4.7\text{ in}4.7 in and the height of the pyramid is 4.5\text{ in}4.5 in. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch.

Answer 1

Answer:

33.1in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the square based pyramid = BH/3

B is the base area

H is the height

Base area = L²

Base area = 4.7²

Base area = 22.09 square inches

Height = 4.5in

Get the volume

Volume of the pyramid = 22.09*4.5/3

Volume of the pyramid = 22.09 * 1.5

Volume of the pyramid = 33.135in³

Hence the volume of the square based pyramid to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch is 33.1in³
