Frequently asked questions
Use V = 1⁄3 × base edge² × height. A pyramid with a 6-unit base and 10-unit height has a volume of 120 cubic units.
The slant height runs from the base edge midpoint to the apex along a face. It equals √(height² + (base ÷ 2)²).
Add the square base to the four triangular faces: base² + 2 × base × slant height.
Three identical pyramids fill a prism of the same base and height, so the pyramid's volume is one third of base area times height.
