The formula for the volume of a rectangular pyramid is V = (1/3) * base area * height. In this case, the base area is the area of the square base, which can be calculated as 12m * 12m = 144m^2.
Now, plug in the values into the formula: V = (1/3) * 144m^2 * 10m = 1440 m^3.
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular pyramid is 1440 m^3.
So, the correct answer is:
1,440 m3
1,440 m cubed
