The image shows a reconstruction of a pyramid with a square base. What is the best estimate for the volume of the pyramid

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

The volume of a pyramid equals a third times its base times its height \[V_\text{pyramid}=\tfrac13bh\]

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

The base of a square pyramid is a square. The area of a square is the side length of the square, squared. \[b=s^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1,460,040 m3 2,433,400 m3 4,380,120 m3 7,300,200 m3

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

Does the image of the pyramid have the side lengths of the square, and the height of the pyramid?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

So, according to the diagram What is the side of the square \(s\)? and what is the height of the pyramid \(h\)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

230 meters across and 138 meters on h

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

right., so plug these values into the equations, what do you get/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is it 2433

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2,433,400

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

yeah, and the units are m^3

OpenStudy (xcharlizea):

2,433,400 m3 is right.
