Q. Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the area of the base is 15.4cm2 and the height of the pyramid is 13.2cm. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic centimeter.Answer: cm3
Identify Formula: Identify the formula to calculate the volume of a pyramid with a square base.The formula for the volume of a pyramid is V=31×base area×height.
Plug Values: Plug the given values into the formula.Base area A=15.4cm2Height h=13.2cmVolume V=31×A×h
Perform Calculation: Perform the calculation using the given values.V=31×15.4cm2×13.2cm
Calculate Volume: Calculate the volume.V=31×15.4×13.2V=5.133333…×13.2V=67.76cm3 (unrounded)
Round Volume: Round the volume to the nearest tenth of a cubic centimeter. V≈67.8 cm3
