Question 9 • (OC27) GEO-1206310-S2-Degele-VOL7006P

The base edge of an oblique square pyramid is represented as x cm. If the height is 9 cm, what is the volume of the pyramid in terms of x?

Answer
A
3x2 cm3
B
9x2 cm3
C
3x cm3
D
x cm3

Explanation

The volume of any pyramid is one-third of its base area times its perpendicular height. The square base has area x² cm², so the volume is (1/3)(x²)(9) = 3x² cm³. Therefore, the correct choice is 3x² cm³.
