Answer:

8m

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a square based pyramid = [tex]\frac{1}{3}a^{2}h[/tex] where;

a² is the base area of the pyramid since it is square shaped

h is the slant height.

Given Base area = 144m² and Volume = 384m³, on substituting this values given in the formula we have;

[tex]384 = \frac{1}{3}*144h \\cross\ multiplying\ \\384*3=144h\\h = \frac{384*3}{144} \\h = \frac{1,152}{144}\\ h = 8m[/tex]

The slant height of the pyramid is 8m
