The volume of a rectangular pyramid is calculated using the formula V = (1/3) * base area * height.

The base area of the rectangular pyramid is 4 cm * 3 cm = 12 cm^2.

Plugging in the values, we get V = (1/3) * 12 cm^2 * 12 cm = 48 cm^3.

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular pyramid is 48 cm^3.
