Volume of Rectangular and Triangular Pyramids

Front

What is the formula for the volume of a rectangular pyramid?

Back

V = (1/3)Bh, where B is the area of the base and h is the height.

Front

What is the formula for the volume of a triangular pyramid (tetrahedron)?

Back

V = (1/3)Bh, where B is the area of the triangular base and h is the height.

Front

How do you calculate the area of a triangle?

Back

Area = (1/2)bh, where b is the base and h is the height.

Front

What is the volume of a pyramid with a base area of 30 cm² and a height of 10 cm?

Back

V = (1/3)Bh = (1/3)(30)(10) = 100 cm³.

Front

If a pyramid has a base area of 50 cm² and a height of 6 cm, what is its volume?

Back

V = (1/3)Bh = (1/3)(50)(6) = 100 cm³.

Front

What is the volume of a tetrahedron with a base area of 12 in² and a height of 4 in?

Back

V = (1/3)Bh = (1/3)(12)(4) = 16 in³.

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular pyramid with a base length of 4 cm, base width of 3 cm, and height of 5 cm?

Back

V = (1/3)Bh = (1/3)(12)(5) = 20 cm³.

Front

What is the volume of a triangular pyramid with a base area of 8 m² and a height of 9 m?

Back

V = (1/3)Bh = (1/3)(8)(9) = 24 m³.

Front

What is the relationship between the volume of a pyramid and its base area and height?

Back

The volume of a pyramid is directly proportional to its base area and height.

Front

What is the volume of a pyramid with a base area of 25 cm² and a height of 12 cm?

Back

V = (1/3)Bh = (1/3)(25)(12) = 100 cm³.
