The volume of a rectangular pyramid is given by the formula: V = (1/3) * base area * height
The base area of the pyramid is a square with side length 12 meters, so the base area is 12 * 12 = 144 square meters.
Plugging in the values, we get:
V = (1/3) * 144 * 10 = 48 * 10 = 480 cubic meters
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular pyramid is 480 cubic meters.
Use the image to answer the question.
