I'm not entirely sure how to do them.

Try the Pythagorean Theorem for the pyramid height. One side of a triangle is h, one is m, and the other is half a diagonal of the square base.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I did, but I got h = 1.5m

\[h^2=(m/2)^2+m^2\]
\[h^2=m^2/4+m^2=5m^2/4\]

Ahh.....my math was wrong.

\[h=m \sqrt{5}/2\]

\[msqrt{5} \]/2 isn't an option.
OpenStudy (noelgreco):
The base of the triangle is not m/2.
The diagonal of the square base is \[m \sqrt{2}\], so the base of the triangle is \[m \frac{ \sqrt{2} }{ 2 }\]
OpenStudy (noelgreco):
Use that and the answer is given.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how is it msqrt2?
