The Pyramid of Giza is shown. It has a base length of 230 meters and a height of 150 meters.

The Pyramid of Giza is one of the largest pyramid structures still standing in Egypt. It is a right pyramid with a square base, a base length of 230 m, and height of 150 m.

The area of the base is

m2.

The volume is

m3.


Sagot :

the area and volume of the Pyramid of Gaza are  139, 840 m²

and 52950 m³ respectively.

How to determine the parameters

The formula for volume and area of a square pyramid are given thus;

Volume, V= [tex]a^2\frac{h}{3}[/tex]

Area , [tex]A=a^2+2a \sqrt{\frac{a^2}{4}+ h^2 }[/tex]

Where

  • a is the base length
  • h is the height

Substitute the values;

Area = [tex]230^2 + 2(230) \sqrt{\frac{230^2}{4}+ 150^2 }[/tex]

Area = [tex]52900 + 460 + \sqrt{13225 + 22500}[/tex]

Area = [tex]52900 + 460(189)[/tex]

Area = 52900 + 86, 940

Area = 139, 840 m²

Volume , v = [tex]230^2 + \frac{150}{3}[/tex]

Volume = 52900 + 50

Volume = 52950 m³

Thus, the area and volume of the Pyramid of Gaza are  139, 840 m²

and 52950 m³ respectively.
