A right rectangular pyramid has an altitude of 22.3 inches a length of 6.75 inches and width of 10.25?inches. What is the volume of the pyramid in cubic inches?

1 answer

The volume of a right rectangular pyramid is given by the formula:

Volume = (1/3) × base area × altitude

The base area of a rectangle is given by the formula:

Base area = length × width

Plugging in the given values:

Base area = 6.75 inches × 10.25 inches = 69.1875 square inches

Volume = (1/3) × 69.1875 square inches × 22.3 inches = 521.8640625 cubic inches

Therefore, the volume of the right rectangular pyramid is 521.8640625 cubic inches.
