What is the volume of this square pyramid?
1296 cm³
1620 cm³
3888 cm³
11,664 cm³

Answer: 1296 cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, the volume of a square pyramid is,
[tex]V = \frac{a^2h}{3}[/tex]
Where a = side of the square base,
h = height of the pyramid,
By the given diagram,
a = 18 cm,
h = 12 cm,
Hence, the volume of the given pyramid,
[tex]V = \frac{18^2\times 12}{3}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{324\times 12}{3}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{3888}{3}[/tex]
[tex]=1296[/tex] cube cm.
⇒ First option is correct.
