Q. Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the area of the base is 16.6in2 16.6 \mathrm{in}^{2} and the height of the pyramid is 20.9in 20.9 \mathrm{in} . Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch.\newlineAnswer: in 3 ^{3}
  1. Recall Formula: Recall the formula for the volume of a pyramid with a square base.\newlineThe formula for the volume VV of a pyramid with a square base is V=13×base area×heightV = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{base area} \times \text{height}.
  2. Plug in Values: Plug in the given values for the base area and height into the formula.\newlineThe base area AA is given as 16.616.6 in2^2, and the height hh is given as 20.920.9 in.\newlineSo, V=(13)×16.6V = (\frac{1}{3}) \times 16.6 in2×20.9^2 \times 20.9 in.
  3. Calculate Volume: Calculate the volume using the given values.\newlineV=13×16.6×20.9=13×347.14V = \frac{1}{3} \times 16.6 \times 20.9 = \frac{1}{3} \times 347.14 in3^3.
  4. Simplify Calculation: Simplify the calculation to find the volume. V=347.14in33=115.713333in3V = \frac{347.14 \, \text{in}^3}{3} = 115.713333\ldots \, \text{in}^3.
  5. Round Answer: Round the answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch.\newlineThe volume VV rounded to the nearest tenth is approximately 115.7115.7 in3^3.
