Respuesta :

The given right pyramid with a square base has

Height = 3 inches

Base length = 5 inches

The formula for volume of a right pyramid with a square base is given as

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}\times b^2\times h[/tex]

Where

b = length of square base

h = height of pyramid

Inserting the value

It follows

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}\times5^2\times3[/tex]

Simplifying further

[tex]V=25in^3[/tex]

Therefore the volume of the pyramid is

[tex]V=25in^3[/tex]
