Find the volume and surface area of a pyramid with height 3 2cm and square base sides all 6 cm length?

Do your own homework.? How will you learn anything if you ask other people to do it for you.? How will you know if people are lying about the answers, because they know, that you DON'T know.?

Volume of triangular pyramid

Here is to get you started. To increase the size of the image do a CTRL Plus (+) in your browser.
You need to calculate the slant height of the pyramid for the formula of the lateral area. You should find a value of (1/2)*SQRT(203) or about 7.1239 cm

You need to calculate the altitude (height) of the pyramid from the apex (summit) to the center of the base triangle (center of inscribed circle, barycenter, orthocenter). The hypotenuse of such triangle is the slant height. One leg is the altitude (to be found), the measure of the second leg is (1/3) the altitude of the equilateral triangle that forms the base. You should find (1/3) m MH= (1/3)* (11/2)*SQRT(3)

1. Calculate the area of the base (use a formula for the equilateral triangle or the general formula for a triangle: you have its height MH ).
2. Lateral area = 3 times the area of triangle Triangle ECD (in yellow above).
3. Total area = area of base + lateral area.
4. Volume= (1/3)(Area of base)* (height of pyramid)
If you can see the details on the screen capture below, fine, Press CTRL + in your browser to increase the size.

Pyramid tutorials

Good question, and I cannot answer it... but my first thought is, it is not a perfect pyramid. But, if it were, and I wanted to figure it out, I would do a Google search for volume of a pyramid. I'm sure there is a formula out there. I got V=(l*w*h)/3. I'm too lazy to get out my calculator and there is no pencil and paper handy. Good question though.

Pyramid problems in solid mensuration

Look at the problem set up on the screen capture below.
If the pyramid is made of homogenous material you need not worry about the mass (what you call weight) since the ratio of the masses is equal to the ratio of the volumes.
Setting the ratio of volume to be 1/2, and using the ratio of the base areas of the pyramids to be (x/h)^2, you end up with
(1/2)=(x/h)^3
Solving for x, you get x=h/(cubic root of 2)

Draw the developnent of lateral surface of pentagonal pyramid of base side 30mm and axis height 60mm

You need 5 isosceles triangles with a base of 30 mm. To get the height of the triangles (perpendicular to the 30 mm bases) you need to calculate the apothem of the pentagon (assumed to be regular).

If you cut the pyramid by a plane passing through its apex, the center of the base-pentagon,and the midpoint of one side, the plane figure created by the three points (apex, center, and midpoint) is a right triangle. The legs are the apothem, and the altitude of the pyramid. The hypotenuse is the slant height of the pyramid, and is thus the height of the triangles in the development. pyramid (60 mm) form.
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find that slant height.
s^2=a^2+h^2.

Why triangle looks like a pyramid?

A pyramid is made of triangles, and the number of triangles for a particular pyramid base. For a square base pyramid - 4 triangles; pentagonal base - 5 triangles
