A tent is shaped like a right square pyramid with a base side of 4 meters and vertical height of 3 meters. What is the internal volume of the tent?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Given:
Base side = 4 m
Vertical height = 3 m
Formula:
Volume of the pyramid = (1/3) × base area × height
Base area = 4² = 16
Volume = (1/3) × 16 × 3 = 16
Volume of the tent = 16 m³
