Question

what is the volume of this rectangular pyramid? 15 m 17.1 m 17.1 m cubic meters submit

Explanation:

Step1: Find the base area

The base is a rectangle with length \( l = 17.1\) m and width \( w = 17.1\) m. The area of a rectangle \( A_{base}=l\times w\).
\(A_{base}=17.1\times17.1 = 292.41\) \(m^{2}\)

Step2: Use the volume formula for a pyramid

The volume formula for a pyramid is \(V=\frac{1}{3}A_{base}h\), where \(h = 15\) m.
\(V=\frac{1}{3}\times292.41\times15\)
First, calculate \(\frac{1}{3}\times15 = 5\)
Then, \(V=292.41\times5\)
\(V = 1462.05\)

Answer:

\(1462.05\)
