O1/2 xy² cm³
O1/2 x²y cm³

Answer 1

The correct answer is option D which is the volume of the square pyramid will be  $V = \dfrac{1}{2}x^2y\ cm^3$.

What is a square pyramid?

A solid made up of a square base and four triangles connected side by side and meet at the same edge is called a square pyramid.

Given that:-

• The side of the square base is x cm
• The height of the pyramid is y cm.

The volume of the pyramid will be calculated as:-

Volume = $\dfrac{1}{2}$ x Length of square pyramid x Height

Volume = $\dfrac{1}{2}$  x (x)² x y

Volume = $\dfrac{1}{2}$ x²y

Therefore the correct answer is option D which is the volume of the square pyramid will be  $V = \dfrac{1}{2}x^2y\ cm^3$.
