Ulrich Review- Volume of Pyramids

Front

What is the formula for the volume of a pyramid?

Back

Volume = (1/3) × Base Area × Height

Front

What is the base area of a triangular pyramid with a base length of 6 cm and height of 4 cm?

Back

Base Area = (1/2) × base length × height = (1/2) × 6 cm × 4 cm = 12 cm²

Front

How do you calculate the height of a pyramid if you know the volume and base area?

Back

Height = (3 × Volume) / Base Area

Front

What is the volume of a square pyramid with a base side of 4 cm and height of 9 cm?

Back

Volume = (1/3) × (base side)² × height = (1/3) × (4 cm)² × 9 cm = 48 cm³

Front

If a triangular pyramid has a volume of 30 cm³ and a base area of 10 cm², what is its height?

Back

Height = (3 × Volume) / Base Area = (3 × 30 cm³) / 10 cm² = 9 cm

Front

What is the volume of a pyramid with a base area of 50 m² and a height of 12 m?

Back

Volume = (1/3) × Base Area × Height = (1/3) × 50 m² × 12 m = 200 m³

Front

What is the difference between a triangular pyramid and a square pyramid?

Back

A triangular pyramid has a triangular base, while a square pyramid has a square base.

Front

How do you round a volume to the nearest tenth?

Back

Look at the hundredths place; if it's 5 or more, round up the tenths place by 1.

Front

What is the volume of a triangular pyramid with a base area of 20 cm² and height of 6 cm?

Back

Volume = (1/3) × Base Area × Height = (1/3) × 20 cm² × 6 cm = 40 cm³

Front

What is the volume of a square pyramid with a base area of 16 in² and height of 5 in?

Back

Volume = (1/3) × Base Area × Height = (1/3) × 16 in² × 5 in = 26.67 in³
