The volume =  (1/3)  Area of the base * height

 

The base is assumed to be a square so its area  = (6m)^2  =  36m^2

 

The height is given by : sqrt [slant height ^2  - (1/2 of the base)^2 ]  =

 sqrt ( 10^2  - 3^2) m  =  sqrt (91) m

 

So.......the volume  =    

 

(1/3)(36m^2) ( sqrt (91) m) ^2  =  (12 m^2) (sqrt ( 91) m)  ≈

 

114.47 m^3
