Use the volume formula to determine the volume of the pyramid at the Louvre Museum if it has a base that is 112 feet long on each side and has an altitude of 71 feet.
(1 point)
The volume of a pyramid is given by the formula V = (1/3) * base area * height.
First, calculate the base area. Since the base is a square with sides of 112 feet, the base area is 112 * 112 = 12544 square feet.
Next, plug in the values into the volume formula:
V = (1/3) * 12544 * 71
V = (1/3) * 889024
V = 296341.33 cubic feet
Therefore, the volume of the pyramid at the Louvre Museum is approximately 296341.33 cubic feet.

My apologies for the mistake. Let's correct the calculation:
The volume of a pyramid is given by the formula V = (1/3) * base area * height.
First, calculate the base area. Since the base is a square with sides of 112 feet, the base area is 112 * 112 = 12544 square feet.
Next, plug in the values into the volume formula:
V = (1/3) * 12544 * 71
V = (1/3) * 890624
V = 296874 cubic feet
Therefore, the correct volume of the pyramid at the Louvre Museum is approximately 296874 cubic feet. Thank you for pointing out the error.
