Caution wet floor warning sign is in the shape of a rectangular pyramid. It is 31 inches tall and has a base whose dimensions are 12“ x 20“. What is the volume of the sign
The volume of a rectangular pyramid can be calculated using the formula:
Volume = (1/3) * base area * height
First, we need to calculate the base area of the rectangular pyramid:
Base Area = length x width
Base Area = 12 inches x 20 inches
Base Area = 240 square inches
Now we can calculate the volume of the rectangular pyramid:
Volume = (1/3) * 240 sq inches * 31 inches
Volume = (1/3) * 7440 cubic inches
Volume = 2480 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the wet floor warning sign in the shape of a rectangular pyramid is 2480 cubic inches.
