Volume of Square Based Pyramid = (1/3)*(Side Length of Base)^2 *(height)
the given information are: Volume = 120 height = 10
plug this in and get: 120 = (1/3)*(side)^2 *(10) 12 = (1/3)*(side)^2 [divided both sides by 10] 36 = (side)^2 [multiplied both sides by 3] (side) = 6 [square rooted both sides]
Therefore the Side Length of the Base is 6 meters.
