I have a problem that I am having trouble with. There is a square-based pyramid that has an altitude of 50m and a volume of 33,750m , if the altitude is changed from 50m to 120m, what would the new volume be?
---------------
BA = Base Area
120/50 = 2.4 times h, the altitude
--> 2.4*33750
= 81000 cubic meters (not meters, cubic meters)
