The original dimensions of the great pyramid of giza in egypt were 146 meters tall and 229 meters on each side of the square base. what was the original volume of this pyramid? a. 2,337,655 cubic meters b. 1,627,121 cubic meters c. 2,552,129 cubic meters d. 2,429,586 cubic meters

Answer

C. 2,552,129 cubic meters

Explanation

The volume of a pyramid = (1/3)Ah

Where A ⇒ area of the base

            h ⇒ vertical height of the pyramid.

∴ Volume = (1/3) Ah

                 = 1/3 (229 × 229) × 146

                 = 1/3 × 52,441 × 146

                  = 1/3 × 7,656,386

                = 2,552,128.667 m³

In whole number = 2,552,129 m³

x= 149. 24+7=31. 180-31=149
