A cell phone telecommunication tower stands in the shape of rectangular pyramid. The Tower stands 80 m tall and rest on a base that is 15 m x 20 m. What is the volume of the tower would it be 24,000 m with a small three on top or would it be 70 m with a small three on top or would it be 12,000 m with a small three on top and last would it be 8000 m with a small three on top
To find the volume of a rectangular pyramid, you can use the formula:
Volume = (1/3) * base area * height
Given that the base of the tower is 15m x 20m and the height is 80m, let's calculate the volume for each scenario:
1. Volume = (1/3) * 15m * 20m * 80m = 8000 m³
2. Volume = (1/3) * 15m * 20m * 70m = 7000 m³
3. Volume = (1/3) * 15m * 20m * 12m = 1200 m³
4. Volume = (1/3) * 15m * 20m * 8m = 800 m³
So, the correct volume of the tower is 8000 m³ with a small three on top.
