A right rectangular pyramid has an altitude of 35 m and a length of 26 m and a width of 31 m. What is the volume of the pyramid in cubic meters
To find the volume of a right rectangular pyramid, we can use the formula:
Volume = (1/3) * base area * height
The base area of a rectangular pyramid is equal to the area of the base, which is equal to the length multiplied by the width.
Given:
Altitude (height) = 35 m
Length = 26 m
Width = 31 m
Base area = length * width = 26 m * 31 m = 806 m²
Volume = (1/3) * base area * height
Volume = (1/3) * 806 m² * 35 m
Volume = (806 * 35) / 3 m³
Volume ≈ 9,413.33 m³
Therefore, the volume of the pyramid is approximately 9,413.33 cubic meters.
