To find the volume of the Eiffel Tower, we need to find the volume of the square pyramid that it forms. The formula for the volume of a square pyramid is:
Volume = (1/3) * base area * height
The base area of the square pyramid can be found using the formula for the area of a square:
Base area = side length * side length
Given that the side length of the base square is 125 m, we have:
Base area = 125 m * 125 m = 15625 m^2
Now, we can find the volume of the square pyramid:
Volume = (1/3) * 15625 m^2 * 324 m
Volume = 1715625 m^3
Therefore, the volume of the Eiffel Tower, if the sides were solid, would be 1715625 cubic meters.
Leon was wondering one day what the volume of the Eiffel Tower would be if the sides were solid. The base is a square with sides measuring 125 m long on each side, and the altitude of the square pyramid is 324 m. What would the volume be in cubic meters?(1 point)
blank m cubed$$
