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. |
