Answer:
The width of base of rectangular pyramid is 27 inches.
Solution:
Given that
Volume of rectangular pyramid = 1.296 inches
Height of rectangular pyramid = 24 inches
Length of rectangular pyramid = 6 inches
We need to calculate width of the base
[tex]\begin{aligned} \text { Volume of rectangular pyramid } &=\frac{(\text { length } \times \text { height } \times \text { width })}{3} \end{aligned}[/tex]
Let assume width = "x" inches
Now substitute given values and assumed value in formula of volume
[tex]1296=\frac{6 \times 24 \times x}{3}[/tex]
On simplifying the above term,
[tex]x=\frac{1296 \times 3}{6 \times 24}=27[/tex]
Hence width of base of rectangular pyramid is 27 inches.
