(a)
Answer to Problem 41PPS
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The equation for the volume of a Pyramid is
Concept Used:
This is the square base pyramid with base is b cm and a height h cm.
(b)
Write an equation to find the height.
(b)
Answer to Problem 41PPS
The height of the square based pyramid is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The equation for the volume of a Pyramid is
Concept Used:
Suppose the pyramid has a volume 72 cubic cm. Write an equation to find the height.
Given: Volume − 72 cubic cm
Formula for volume of a square bases pyramid is
Calculation:
Formula for volume of a square bases pyramid is
So, the height of the square based pyramid is
Thus, the height of the square based pyramid is
(c)
