Question

A pyramid has a square base of side 5 cm and height 12 cm. Find its volume

• A. $110c{m}^3$
• B. $50c{m}^3$
• C. $150c{m}^3$
• D. $100c{m}^3$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $100c{m}^3$

$\text{Volume of pyramid}$

$\begin{array}{cc}\frac{1}{3}\times \text{area of base}\times \text{height}& =\frac{1}{3}\times {\left(5\right)}^2\times 12\\ & =100{\text{cm}}^3\end{array}$

So, option d is correct.
