Question

A tent is in the shape of a pyramid. The base is a rectangle with a length of 12 feet and a width of 10 feet. The height of the tent is 8 feet. Find the volume of the tent.

V = 960 ft³
V = 320 ft³
V = 480 ft³
V = 560 ft³

hint Hint:

The volume of a pyramid is given by $1 third cross times b a s e space a r e a space x space h e i g h t$

The correct answer is: V = 320 ft³

Area of the base rectangle is 10 × 12
= 120 feet²
Volume of the pyramid $equals fraction numerator 1 over denominator 3 end fraction cross times 120 cross times 8$
= 320 ft³
