Pyramid practice problems - page 2 of 14
Formulas for a Pyramid:
1. Volume (V):
V = 13 × Base Area × Height
The volume is one-third of the product of the base area and the height.
2. Surface Area (SA):
Lateral Surface Area (LSA): The sum of the areas of the triangular faces.
Total Surface Area (TSA): The sum of the lateral surface area and the base area.

- Roof cover
Above the pavilion with a square ground plan with a side length of a = 12 m is a pyramid-shaped roof with a height v = 4.5 m. Calculate how much m² of sheet metal is needed to cover this roof; if 5.5% of the sheet, we must add for joints and waste. - Perimeter of needle
The perimeter of the four-sided needle is 48 m, and its height is 2.5 m; how much will the sheet metal for this pyramid cost? If 1m² costs €1.5, a 12% loss due to joints and folds is included in the area. - Six-sided parasol
The parasol has the shape of the shell of a regular six-sided pyramid, whose base edge is a=6dm and height v=25cm. How much fabric is needed to make a parasol if we count 10% for joints and waste? - Candle wax wick
A pyramidal candle with a square base has a side edge of s = 12 cm and a base edge of 4 cm. How much wax will we need to make it, and how long is the wick if it is 5% bigger than its height? - Weight of Gold Pyramid
The teacher cast the gold in the shape of a regular triangular pyramid with a base edge length of 12 cm and a height of 8 cm. The density of gold is 19,320 kg/m³. What is the weight of the casting? - Four-sided turret
The turret has the shape of a regular four-sided pyramid with a base edge 0.8 m long. The height of the turret is 1.2 m. How many square meters are needed to cover it, counting the extra 10% sheet metal waste? - Pyramid-shaped roof
A block-shaped shed is covered with a quadrilateral pyramid-shaped roof with a base with sides of 6m and 3m and a height of 2.5m. How many m² (square meters) must be purchased if an extra 40% is calculated for roofing and waste? - Pyramid roof
How much m² of the galvanized sheet is used to cover the roof of the tower, which has the shape of a four-sided pyramid, whose base edge is 6 m long? The height of the tower is 9m. When covering, is 5% metal waste expected? - House roof
The house's roof is a regular quadrangular pyramid with a base edge 20 m. If the roof pitch is 38° and we calculate 12% of waste, connections, and overlapping of the area roof, how much m² is needed to cover the roof? - Roof material
In the form of a pyramid on the house with a square floor plan, the roof has dimensions of 12 x 12 m, with a height of 2 m at the highest point. How much roofing do I need to buy? Count on a 10% reserve. - Cross-section of a roof
The owner must cover the carport with a hipped roof with a rectangular cross-section of 8 m x 5 m. All roof surfaces have the same slope of 30°. Determine the price and weight of the roof if 1 m² cost €270 and weighs 43 kg. - Cheops pyramid
The Pyramid of Cheops is a pyramid with a square base with a side of 233 m and a height of 146.6 m. It is made from limestone with a density of 2.7 g/cm³. Calculate the amount of stone in tons. How many trains with 30 twenty-ton wagons carry the stone? - Observation tower
The observation tower is covered with a roof in the shape of a regular quadrangular pyramid with a base edge of 8 m and a height of 6 m. 60% of the roofing needs to be replaced. How many m² do you need to buy? - Roof 8
How many liters of air is under the tower's roof, which has the shape of a regular six-sided pyramid with a 3,6-meter-long bottom edge and a 2,5-meter height? Calculate the supporting columns occupy about 7% of the volume under the roof. - Hexagonal pyramid
The pyramid's base is a regular hexagon, which can be circumscribed in a circle with a radius of 1 meter. Calculate the volume of a pyramid 2.5 meters high. - Tower
The top of the tower is a regular hexagonal pyramid with a base edge 5.7 meters long and a height 7 meters. How many m² of the sheet is required to cover the top of the tower? We must add 4% of metal for waste. - Monument weight A granite monument in the shape of a pyramid with a rectangular base will be placed in the city park. The base dimensions are 60 cm and 110 cm, and the pyramid height is 220 cm. The density of granite is approximately 2800 kg/m³. Calculate the weight of t
- Tower roof
The tower's roof is a regular 4-sided pyramid with a height of 4m and an edge of the base of 6m. 25% of the roof covering was found to be damaged. How many square meters of coverage are needed to repair the roof? - Triangular pyramid
Calculate the volume of a regular triangular pyramid with edge length a = 12cm and pyramid height v = 20cm. - Roof material calculation How much sheet is needed for a roof with the shape of a regular quadrilateral pyramid if its edge is 2.8 m long and the height of the roof is 0.8 m? Calculate 10% for the overlap (extra).
