Since there is a square at the base of the pyramid, the area of the base of the pyramid is:
Sbn = AD2 = 52 = 25 cm2.
The height of the pyramid, according to the condition, is 6 cm, h = ОМ = 6 cm.
Then the volume of the pyramid is:
V = Sosn * ОМ / 3 = 25 * 6/3 = 50 cm3.
Answer: The volume of the pyramid is 50 cm3.
