To calculate the volume of paperweight
Answer to Problem 17E
The volume of the paperweight is 200 cm3
Explanation of Solution
Given information: The edge length of paperweight is 6 cm. The base area pyramid(a) is 7.64 cm2. Height of pyramid is 1.7 cm(h).
Formula used :
Calculation:
Substituting the value of edge,
Volume of paperweight cube = (6)3 =216 cm3--------------(1)
Substituting the value of area and height,
Volume of pyramid =
Subtracting (1) & (2), gives us-
Volume of paperweight = volume of cube − volume of pyramid =216 − 4.23 cm3
Hence, the volume of paperweight is,
215.577
