Cube
To find the volume of a cube multiply one side by itself three times or (a x a x a) or (a^3)
Example
5 x 5 x 5= 125
Volume=125
Volume=125
Rectangular Prism
To find the volume of a rectangular prism multiply the height by the length by the width or (h x l x w)
Example
5 x 4 x 8=160
Volume=160
Volume=160
Triangular Prism
To find the volume of a triangular prism you multiply one half by the height by the base by the length or
(1/2 x h x b x l)
(1/2 x h x b x l)
Example
1/2 x 10 x 8 x 60=2400
Volume=2400
Volume=2400
Cone with radius
To find the volume of a cone with radius you multiply one third by pi (3.14) by radius squared by height or
(1/3 x 3.14 x r^2 x h)
(1/3 x 3.14 x r^2 x h)
Cone with diameter
To find the volume of a cone with diameter you dived the diameter by two then that gives you radius and do the formula of cone with radius. (d/2=r)
Example
1/3 x 3.14 x 20^2 x 60=25120
Volume =25120
Volume =25120
Cylinder
To find the volume of a cylinder with radius you multiply pi (3.14) by radius squared by height or (3.14 x r^2 x h)
To find the volume of a cylinder with diameter you dived the diameter by two then do the same formula above
To find the volume of a cylinder with diameter you dived the diameter by two then do the same formula above
Example with radius
3.14 x 3 x 3 x 6=165.56
Volume=165.56
Volume=165.56
Example with diameter
12/2=6
3.14 x 6^2 x16=1808.64
Volume=1808.64
3.14 x 6^2 x16=1808.64
Volume=1808.64
Sphere with radius
To find the volume of a sphere with radius you multiply four thirds by pi (3.14) by radius three times or
( 4/3 x 3.14 x r^3)
( 4/3 x 3.14 x r^3)
Sphere with diameter
To find the volume of a sphere with diameter you would dived the diameter by 2 then that would give you the radius so you would do the sphere with radius
Example with radius
4/3 x 3.14 x11^3=5572.45
Volume=179.50
Volume=179.50
Example with diameter
7/2=3.5
4/3 x 3.14 x 3.5^3=179.50
Volume=179.50
4/3 x 3.14 x 3.5^3=179.50
Volume=179.50
Pyramid
To find the volume of a pyramid multiply the length of the base times the width of the base time height time 1/3 or
(a x b x h x 1/3)
(a x b x h x 1/3)
Example
5 x 5 x 10 x 1/3=83.3
Volume=83.3
Volume=83.3
