Suppose the pyramid below has a square base with side of length 10 meters and has height from the
Base to the apex of 15 meters. Find the volume of the pyramid.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The volume of a pyramid is given by the formula V = (1/3)Bh, where B is the area of the base and h is the height from the base to the apex. In this case, the base is a square with side of length 10, so B = 10^2 = 100. The height from the base to the apex is given as 15. Substituting into the formula, we get V = (1/3)(100)(15) = 500 cubic meters. Therefore, the best choice is C. The formula for the volume of a pyramid is V = 1/3 * B * h, where B is the area of the base and h is the height. In this case, the base is a square with side length 10, so B = 10^2 = 100. The height is given as 15. Substituting into the formula, we get V = 1/3 * 100 * 15 = 500. Therefore, the volume of the pyramid is 500 m^3. The correct choice is C.
