A rectangular pyramid has a base area of `56 cm^2` and a volume of `224 cm^2`. What is the height of the pyramid ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the height of the rectangular pyramid, we can use the formula for the volume of a pyramid: **Step 1: Write down the formula for the volume of a pyramid.** The volume \( V \) of a pyramid is given by the formula: \[ V = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height} \] ...

  • Pyramid, in architecture, a monumental structure constructed of or faced with stone or brick and having a rectangular base and four sloping triangular (or sometimes trapezoidal) sides meeting at an apex (or truncated to form a platform). Pyramids have been built at various times in Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia, western Asia, Greece, Cyprus, Italy, India, Thailand, Mexico, South America, and on some islands of the Pacific Ocean. Those of Egypt and of Central and South America are the best known.
