Q. Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the side length of the base is 18.2 in and the height of the pyramid is 12.2in. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch.Answer: in 3
Calculate Base Area: The formula to calculate the volume of a pyramid with a square base is V=31×base_area×height. The base area of a square is found by squaring the side length. Let's calculate the base area first.Base area = side_length2=18.2in×18.2in=331.24in2
Find Volume: Now, we will use the base area to find the volume of the pyramid. Volume = (31)×base_area×height=(31)×331.24in2×12.2in
Perform Multiplication and Division: Let's perform the multiplication and division to find the volume.Volume = (31)×331.24in2×12.2in=110.4133in2×12.2in≈1346.04246in3
Round Volume: Finally, we need to round the volume to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch.Rounded volume ≈1346.0in3
