Explanation / Answer

function pyramidVolume = CalculatePyramidVolume(baseLength, baseWidth, pyramidHeight)
%Function input argument: baseLength, baseWidth, and pyramidheight
%Function output argument: pyramidVolume
%The input argument for fincding volume of the pyramid is:
%CalculatePyramidVolume(1,1,1)

base_area = baseLength*baseWidth; %calculate the base area
pyramidVolume = (1/3)*base_area*pyramidHeight; %calculate the volume

end

1.pyramidVolume = CalculatePyramidVolume(1,1,1)

Output:

pyramidVolume =

0.3333

2. pyramidVolume = CalculatePyramidVolume(5.8,4.0,6.0)

Output:

pyramidVolume =

46.4000
