To find the volume of a rectangular pyramid, we can use the formula:
Volume = (base area * height) / 3
The base of the pyramid is a square with sides measuring 125 m, so the area of the base is calculated as:
base area = side^2
base area = 125 m * 125 m
base area = 15625 m^2
The height of the pyramid is given as 324 m.
Now we can plug the values into the formula to find the volume:
Volume = (base area * height) / 3
Volume = (15625 m^2 * 324 m) / 3
Volume = 5,062,500 m^3
Therefore, the volume of the Eiffel Tower, considering the sides as solid, would be 5,062,500 cubic meters.
Leon was wondering one day what the volume of the Eiffel Tower would be if the sides were solid. the base is square with sides measuring 125 M long on each side and an altitude of the square pyramid is 324 m. what would the volume be in cubic meters
(think of it as a rectangular pyramid)
