How do you find the volume of a circle based pyramid?
Wouldn't a circle-based pyramid look a lot like a cone ? If so, you could probably use the formula for the volume of a cone and get away with it.
How are a cone and a pyramid alike?
Start with a regular tetrahedron (triangular based pyramid). As you increase the number of sides in the base of the pyramid, the shape becomes more and more like a right cone. In the limit, the base tends to a polygon with an infinite number of sides - a circle, and the pyramid tends to a right cone.
How is a pyramid like a cone?
A cone is a pyramid in its limit - when the base has infinitely many vertices.
How is a pyramid alike from a cone?
A pyramid and a cone are alike because they are both are like in the same shape.
What is like a pyramid but its base is a circle?
A cone ?
The formula for the volume of a cone is most like the formula for the volume of which figure?
The formula for a pyramid. The volume of a pyramid is (1/3)(B)(h). The volume of a cone is essentially the same: (1/3)(B=πr2)(h)

Is a cone a pyramid or a prism?
A cone is a common pyramid-like figure where the base is a circle or other closed curve instead of a polygon. A cone has a curved lateral surface instead of several triangular faces, but in terms of volume, a cone and a pyramid are just alike.

Why are cereal boxes are not shaped like a cone?
Cause the volume a box is wider than the volume of a cone and when we use shaped cone the cereal wont fit in
