Question

What is the volume of the square pyramid with base edges 14m and slant height 25m?

Answer 1

The volume of square pyramid is 1/3Dh
1/3*25*14=116.667

Answer 2

D) 1633
`m^(3)`

Explanation:

The volume of square a pyramid =
`(1)/(3) *base area * slant height`

Here the base is a square with the side measures 14 m and the slant height(h) = 25

Base area = 14*14

Base area = 196 square meter.

Now plug in base area = 196 and slant height (h) = 25 in the above formula, we get

The volume of the given square pyramid =
`(1)/(3) *196*25`

= 1633.33 cubic meter

Let's round off to the nearest whole number, we get

The volume of the given square pyramid = 1633
`m^(3)`
