Question

Find the height of a square pyramid that has a volume of 32 cubic feet and a base length of 4 feet. . . . a. 2 feet. b. 4 feet. c. 6 feet. d. 8 feet.

Answer 1

Volume of Pyramid = (1/3)*(base area) * height.

32 ft³ = (1/3)*(4*4)* h. Since Pyramid is square based.

32 = (16/3)*h

16h/3 = 32

h = 32*3/16

h = 6

Height = 6 feet. Option C.
