5. A pyramid has a square base of side 5 cm and a height of 6 cm. Find
its volume.
A. 200 cm³
B. 150 cm³ C. 100 cm³ D. 50 cm³

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

V = (1/3) * base area * height

In this case, the base is a square with side 5 cm, so its area is:

base area = 5² = 25 cm²

The height of the pyramid is given as 6 cm.

Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

V = (1/3) * 25 cm² * 6 cm

V = 50 cm³

Therefore, the volume of the pyramid is 50 cm³. The answer is option D.
