[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the missing side of the base of the pyramid, we first need to determine the total perimeter of the base by multiplying the length of one side by the number of sides:

Total perimeter of the base = 4 * 18 = 72 feet

Since the total perimeter of the base is 66 feet, the missing side would be:

Missing side = Total perimeter - Given side = 72 - 18 = 54 feet

Next, we calculate the volume of the pyramid using the formula:

Volume = 1/3 * base area * height

First, we find the base area by calculating the area of the base of the pyramid which is a square:

Area of the base = (18 * 18) = 324 square feet

Given that the height of the pyramid is not provided, we cannot calculate the exact volume. If you know the height of the pyramid, you can plug it into the formula to find the volume.
