Here are the volumes for each pyramid:

Part a· 2 steps

  1. Calculate the area of the square base.

    The base is a square with side length 8 cm8 \text{ cm}.

    Base Area=side×side=8 cm×8 cm=64 cm2\text{Base Area} = \text{side} \times \text{side} = 8 \text{ cm} \times 8 \text{ cm} = 64 \text{ cm}^2
  2. Calculate the volume of the pyramid.

    The height of the pyramid is 10 cm10 \text{ cm}.

    Volume=13×Base Area×height\text{Volume} = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{Base Area} \times \text{height} Volume=13×64 cm2×10 cm\text{Volume} = \frac{1}{3} \times 64 \text{ cm}^2 \times 10 \text{ cm} Volume=6403 cm3≈213.33 cm3\text{Volume} = \frac{640}{3} \text{ cm}^3 \approx 213.33 \text{ cm}^3

    The volume of pyramid (a) is 213.33 cm3\boxed{\text{213.33 cm}^3}.

Part b

96 cm3\text{96 cm}^3

  1. Calculate the area of the rectangular base.

    The base is a rectangle with length 8 cm8 \text{ cm} and width 6 cm6 \text{ cm}.

    Base Area=length×width=8 cm×6 cm=48 cm2\text{Base Area} = \text{length} \times \text{width} = 8 \text{ cm} \times 6 \text{ cm} = 48 \text{ cm}^2
  2. Calculate the volume of the pyramid.

    The height of the pyramid is 6 cm6 \text{ cm}.

    Volume=13×Base Area×height\text{Volume} = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{Base Area} \times \text{height} Volume=13×48 cm2×6 cm\text{Volume} = \frac{1}{3} \times 48 \text{ cm}^2 \times 6 \text{ cm} Volume=16 cm2×6 cm=96 cm3\text{Volume} = 16 \text{ cm}^2 \times 6 \text{ cm} = 96 \text{ cm}^3

    The volume of pyramid (b) is 96 cm3\boxed{\text{96 cm}^3}.

Part c

20 cm3\text{20 cm}^3

  1. Calculate the area of the triangular base.

    The base is a right-angled triangle with base 4 cm4 \text{ cm} and height 6 cm6 \text{ cm}.

    Base Area=12×base×height=12×4 cm×6 cm=12 cm2\text{Base Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \text{ cm} \times 6 \text{ cm} = 12 \text{ cm}^2
  2. Calculate the volume of the pyramid.

    The height of the pyramid is 5 cm5 \text{ cm}.

    Volume=13×Base Area×height\text{Volume} = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{Base Area} \times \text{height} Volume=13×12 cm2×5 cm\text{Volume} = \frac{1}{3} \times 12 \text{ cm}^2 \times 5 \text{ cm} Volume=4 cm2×5 cm=20 cm3\text{Volume} = 4 \text{ cm}^2 \times 5 \text{ cm} = 20 \text{ cm}^3

    The volume of pyramid (c) is 20 cm3\boxed{\text{20 cm}^3}.
