A tea bag is shaped like a regular square pyramid. Each leg of the base is 4 cm, and the slant height is 5 cm. Find the VOLUME of the tea bag.
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Sketch the figure::
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Find the diagonal of the base:: d^2 = 4^2+4^2; d = 4*sqrt(2)
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Find the height::
\n" ); document.write( "h^2 = 5^2 + (2sqrt(2))^2
\n" ); document.write( "h^2 = 5^2 + 8 = 33
\n" ); document.write( "height = sqrt(33)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Ans:: Volume = (1/3)(height)(area of base) = (1/3)(sqrt(33))16 cm^2
