Volume of a Square Pyramid Calculator

Pyramids are solid shapes. They have a polygon as their base and triangular faces that meet at the apex(vertex). The volume of a square pyramid refers to the space enclosed between its five faces. The volume of a square pyramid is one-third of the product of the area of the base and the height of the pyramid.

How to Find Volume of a Square Pyramid?

The volume of a square pyramid is the capacity of the pyramid or the measure of the amount of space it occupies. The volume of a square pyramid whose length of a side is 'a' and height 'h' is calculated by the following formula:

The volume of a square pyramid(V) = 1/3 × a² × h

Solved Examples on Volume of a Square Pyramid Calculator

Example 1:

Find the volume of a square pyramid with base sides of 6 units and a height of 8 units.

Solution:

The volume of a square pyramid(V) = 1/3 × a² × h

= 1/3 × 6² × 8

= 1/3 × 36 × 8

= 96 cubic units

Therefore, the volume of a square pyramid(V) is 96 cubic units.

Example 2:

Find the volume of a square pyramid with base sides of 3 units and a height of 8 units.

Solution:

The volume of a square pyramid(V) = 1/3 × a² × h

= 1/3 × 3² × 8

= 1/3 × 9 × 8

= 24 cubic units

Therefore, the volume of a square pyramid(V) is 24 cubic units.

Example 3:

Find the volume of a square pyramid with base sides of 9 units and a height of 6 units.

Solution:

The volume of a square pyramid(V) = 1/3 × a² × h

= 1/3 × 9² × 6

= 1/3 × 36 × 8

= 162 cubic units

Therefore, the volume of a square pyramid(V) is 162 cubic units.

Similarly, you can try the volume of a square pyramid calculator to find the volume of a square pyramid with the following dimensions:

1) length of side = 8 units and height = 15 units

2) length of side = 18 units and height = 14 units
