Okay, I am so tired... But I'm sure if they both are the same height and have the same base dimensions, they should be the same volume. To check that, you should
use the formula for volume of the pyramid to find the dimensions and apply them for the prism... I was up till 4 am this morning.. I'm no good at explaining right now. I'm sorry..

lol take a nap then dude
OpenStudy (welshfella):
volume of pyramis = 1/3 * height * area of base
volume of prism = height * area of base
OpenStudy (will.h):
@welshfella is right :)
OpenStudy (welshfella):
Volum pyramid 1/3 * h * A
------------- = ---------- = 1/3
h * A
Volume prism
