Answer:

The volume of the given pyramid is 300 cm³

Explanation:

The volume of a pyramid,
V_(pyramid), is given as follows;


V_(pyramid) = (1)/(3) * Base \ area * Height

The height of the pyramid = 12 cm

The side length of the square base of the pyramid = 5 cm

The base area of the pyramid polyhedron with square base = 5 cm × 5 cm = 25 cm²

Therefore, by substitution, we have;


V_(pyramid) = (1)/(3) * 25 \ cm^2 * 12 \ cm = 300 \ cm^3

The volume of the given pyramid, V = 300 cm³.
