A pyramid 8cm height stand on a rectangular base 6 cm by 4cm. Calculate the volume of the pyramid
The formula for the volume of a pyramid is:
V = (1/3) * base area * height
First, we need to find the base area of the rectangular base:
base area = length * width
base area = 6cm * 4cm
base area = 24cm²
Now we can plug in the values:
V = (1/3) * 24cm² * 8cm
V = 64cm³
Therefore, the volume of the pyramid is 64 cubic centimeters.
