The volume of a pyramid is given by the formula:
Volume = (1/3) * base area * height.
The base area of a square is given by the formula:
Base area = side length^2.
Plugging in the given values, we have:
Base area = 14.7 in * 14.7 in
Base area = 216.09 square inches
Volume = (1/3) * 216.09 square inches * 21.3 in
Volume = 1440.14 cubic inches
Round to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch:
Volume ≈ 1440.1 cubic inches.
Therefore, the volume of the pyramid is approximately 1440.1 cubic inches.
Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the side length of the base is 14, point, 7, in14.7 in and the height of the pyramid is 21, point, 3, in21.3 in. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch.
