Respuesta :

Answer:

correct choice is option d  [tex]v=2/9*s^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

volume of pyramid is given by 1/3(Area of base* height)

Given base of pyramid is square with length of each side s

area of square is given by [tex]side^2[/tex]

Thus, area of base of pyramid = [tex]s^2[/tex]

Height of pyramid = 2/3  of  side of base of pyramid = 2/3* s = 2s/3

Therefore volume of pyramid = 1/3(area of base of pyramid *Height of pyramid)

                                            = [tex]1/3(s^2*2s/3)[/tex]

                                             = [tex]2/9*s^3[/tex]

Thus, correct choice is option d [tex]v=2/9*s^3[/tex]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]v=\frac{2}{9} s^{3}[/tex]
