The volume of a pyramid is V=1/3Bh where B is the area of the base and h the height from the base to the apex. This works for any location of the apex, provided that h is measured as the perpendicular distance from the plane which contains the base.
so yes, this statement is false as the angle b/t the face and the base is not 90 degrees .. i.e. it is not perpendicular to the base
In the formula for the volume of a pyramid, the height h is the distance measured along one face of the pyramid to the base.
Is this statement false?
