Volume Formula of a Square Pyramid:
V=1/3b^(2)h
Vol = b^2h/3 write it like that.
Part 1:
Given a square based pyramid, write an equation that represents its volume if the length of the one of the sides of the base is 6 more than twice the length of its height.

b = 2h+6

----------
Surface Area Formula of a Square Pyramid:
A=2bs + b^2
What is s?
Part 2:
Given the surface area is 100 square feet, find its volume.
