The base of a pyramid is an equilateral triangle of side 10 m. If the height of the pyramid is 40√3 m, then the volume of the pyramid is:1. 900 m32. 800 m33. 1000 m34. 1200 m3

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : 1000 m3

Given - 

base of the pyramid is an equilateral triangle of side 10 m, height of pyramid = 40√3 m

Formula used - 

volume of pyramid = (1/3) × area of base × height

area of equilateral triangle = (√3/4) × side2

Solution - 

Let the volume of pyramid be V m3.

⇒ Area of Equilateral triangle = (√3/4) × 102 = 25√3 m2

⇒ V = (1/3) × 25√3 × 40√3

⇒ V = 1,000 m3

∴ Volume = 1,000 m3.
