The answer is still:
Volume pyramid = 1/3 x base_area x height
= 1/3 x (6m x 6m) x 6m
= 72m3.
V(pyramid) = (1/3)Bh, where B is the area of the base.
V = (1/3)(6^2)(6) = 72 m^3

A square pyramid has a height of 18cm and base that measures 12cm on each side explain whether tripling the height would triple the volume of the pyramid?
Yes, the volume triples. When you have a height of 18, the volume will equal 864. (Volume of a pyramid is the area of the base x the height x 1/3)18*3=54. When you plug this in to the above listed formula, the volume will be 2592. Divide that by three and you get 864.

What is the volume of cube that has an edge of 4 inches?
The volume of a square cuboid is length x height x width. A cube is a special type of cuboid in which all six faces are square. The three dimensions then become equal in length. So the volume of a cube is L3 where L is the length of any edge. The volume of a cube with an edge length of 4" is 43 = 64 in3 (or 64 cubic inches)
What is l times w times height equal volume?
it is the volume
Which set of properties describes a square?
It has four sides of equal length and the corner angles are all equal.
What is the volume of a right pyramid whose base is a square with a side of 6 m long and whose altitude is equal to the base side?
Volume pyramid = 1/3 x base_area x height = 1/3 x (6m x 6m) x 6m = 72m3.
The slant height of a pyramid and the altitude of a pyramid are equal true or false?
False
The volume of a triangle pyramid is 100 cubic meters The base is a triangle with an area equal to 20 square meters?
Yes, it can be.
Find the volume of a triangular pyramid?
A pyramid has a base and triangular sides which rise to meet at the same point. The base may be any polygon such as a square, rectangle, triangle, etc. The general formula for the volume of a pyramid is:Area of the base * Height * 1/3 The volume of a pyramid with a rectangular base is equal to: Length_of_base * Width_of_base * Height * 1/3
How do you solve volume of a pyramid?
A pyramid has a base and triangular sides which rise to meet at the same point. The base may be any polygon such as a square, rectangle, triangle, etc. The general formula for the volume of a pyramid is: Area of the base * Height * 1/3 The volume of a pyramid with a rectangular base is equal to: Length of base * Width of base * Height * 1/3
The slant height of a pyramid and the altitude of a pyramid are not the same thing?
True, because the slant height and the altitude, or height, of the pyramid form one leg and the hypotenuse of a triangle withing the pyramid, and the hypotenuse of a triangle is always the longest side- it is not possible for the hypotenuse to be equal to the legs of a right triangle. (It is a right triangle because an altitude is perpendicular to the base of a pyramid.)
Does a square pyramid have 4 equal sides?
no it does not
How many equal side does a pyramid have?
A pyramid does not need to have any equal sides. A REGULAR pyramid has as many equal sides as the number of sides on the base. So, a triangular pyramid (tetrahedron) will have 3 equal faces, a square based pyramid will have 4, etc.

How does the volume of the pyramid compare to the prism with equal dimensions?
Vol(Pyramid) = 1/3*Vol(Prism)
