The volume of a square pyramid is given by the following formula:
[tex]V = a^{2} \frac{h}{3}[/tex]
a is the side length of the square base, and h is the height of the pyramid.
Plug in your known values into the formula:
[tex]a = 9, h = 5[/tex]
[tex]V = 9^{2} \times \frac{5}{3}[/tex]
[tex]V = 81 \times \frac{5}{3} [/tex]
[tex]V = 135[/tex]
The volume of this square pyramid is 135 centimeters cubed.
