Question

find the volume of this square based pyramid.
\\(v = ?\text{ cm}^3\\)
round to the nearest tenth.

Explanation:

Identify the given dimensions

Using the Volume of a Square Pyramid and Volume of a Pyramid knowledge points

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Calculate the area of the square base

Using the Volume of a Square Pyramid knowledge point

$$ B = s^2 = 5^2 = 25\text{ cm}^2 $$

Calculate the volume of the pyramid

Using the Volume of a Square Pyramid knowledge point

$$ V = \frac{1}{3} \cdot B \cdot h = \frac{1}{3} \cdot 25 \cdot 5 = \frac{125}{3}\text{ cm}^3 $$

Round to the nearest tenth

Using the Volume of a Square Pyramid knowledge point

$$ V \approx 41.6667\text{ cm}^3 \approx 41.7\text{ cm}^3 $$

Answer:

Find the volume of this square based pyramid.

\(V =\) <blank>41.7</blank> \(\text{cm}^3\)

Round to the nearest tenth.
