Question

Find the volume of a square pyramid with a height of 8 m and base edges of 5 m .v_m3(round to the nearest tenth as needed .)

Answer 1

Answer:
`V\text{ = }66.7m^3`Explanations:

The volume of a square based pyramid is given by the formula:

`\begin{gathered} V\text{ = }(a^2h)/(3) \\ \text{where V is the volume } \\ a\text{ is the }base\text{ edge} \\ \text{and h is the height} \end{gathered}`
`\begin{gathered} V\text{ = }(5^2*8)/(3) \\ V\text{ = }(25*8)/(3) \\ V\text{ = }(200)/(3) \\ V\text{ = }66.7m^3 \end{gathered}`
