Question

find the volume of the square pyramid. use the formula: v = \frac{bh}{3}, b = area of the square base. v = ? ft³

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate base - area

The base is a square with side length $s = 6$ ft. The area of a square $B=s^2$, so $B = 6\times6=36$ $ft^2$.

Step2: Calculate volume

We know $B = 36$ $ft^2$ and $h = 20$ ft. Using the volume formula $V=\frac{Bh}{3}$, we substitute the values: $V=\frac{36\times20}{3}$.
$V = 240$ $ft^3$.

Answer:

$240$
