Given a square pyramid with a height of 27 ft and a volume of 5,040 cubic feet, find the length of one side of the square base. Round to the nearest tenth.
v=1/3 times height times base height=27 base=? v=5040
5040=(1/3)27 base area 5040=9 times base area divide both sides by 9 560=base aera square is side^2 so 560=side^2 sqrt both sides 23.6643=side tenth 23.7 feet is one isde
