The volume of a pyramid can be calculated using the formula:
V = (1/3) * base area * height
Since the base is a square, the base area is equal to side length squared:
Base area = 40 feet * 40 feet = 1600 square feet
Now plug in the values into the formula:
V = (1/3) * 1600 square feet * 39 feet
V = (1/3) * 62400 cubic feet
V = 20800 cubic feet
Therefore, the volume of the pyramid is 20800 cubic feet.
Find the volume of a pyramid that has a square base where the length of the base is
40
40 feet and the height of the pyramid is
