Finding the Volume with Given Dimensions
Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 105 cubic inches
width = 5 inches
height = 3 inches
length = ?
This section will cover the fundamentals and rules for finding the volume.
The volume is the amount of space inside of a solid figure. Finding the volume is like finding the amount of water it will take to fill an aquarium.
Finding the Volume with Missing Dimensions
Let's say you want to find the volume for solid figures and you only have part of the information.
Example 1: Find the length of the rectangle solid.
Example 2: Find the height of the square pyramid.
The height is the vertical distance from the point of the pyramid down to the center of the base.
The formula for the volume of a cone pyramid is:
Geometry is a type of math that focuses on the study of shapes and measurements and its relation to points, lines, angles, surfaces, and solids.
