Consider the cube below. The top most point of the pyramid ( also called the apex ) is at the center of the cube. What is the volume of the square pyramid inside the cube? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer:
The volume of the square pyramid inside the cube is [tex]85.3\ cm^{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The volume of the square pyramid is equal to
[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}Bh[/tex]
where
B is the area of the square base of the pyramid
h is the height of the pyramid
Find the area of the square base B of the pyramid
[tex]B=8^{2}=64\ cm^{2}[/tex]
we have
[tex]h=H/2=8/2=4\ cm[/tex]
substitute the values
[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}(64)(4)=85.3\ cm^{3}[/tex]
