Find the volume of a regular quadrangular pyramid, the base side of which is 6 and the lateral edge √31.

Given:

base side = 6 cm

side rib = √31

Find: V (regular quadrangular prism).

Decision:

V (regular quadrangular prism) = 1/3 * S (main) * h;

1. Find the area of the base:

S (main) = 6 * 6 = 36;

2. Height of the prism = lateral rib = √31;

V (regular quadrangular prism) = 1/3 * 36 * √31 = 12 * √31

Answer: 12 * √31
