The formula for the volume of a rectangular pyramid is given by V = (1/3) * length * width * height.
Given data:
Length (L) = 7 cm
Width (W) = 9 cm
Volume (V) = 231 cubic cm
Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for the height (H):
231 = (1/3) * 7 * 9 * H
231 = (63/3) * H
231 = 21 * H
H = 231 / 21
H = 11
Therefore, the height of the rectangular pyramid is 11 cm.
A rectangular pyramid has a length of 7 cm and a width of 9 cm. It's volume is 231 cubic centimeters. Use the formula for the volume of a pyramid to calculate the height of this pyramid. Explain all work
