Volume Formulas for Common Shapes
Cube
V = s³
Where s = side length
Where s = side length
Sphere
V = (4/3)πr³
Where r = radius
Where r = radius
Cylinder
V = πr²h
Where r = radius, h = height
Where r = radius, h = height
Cone
V = (1/3)πr²h
Where r = radius, h = height
Where r = radius, h = height
Rectangular Prism
V = l × w × h
Where l = length, w = width, h = height
Where l = length, w = width, h = height
Pyramid
V = (1/3) × Base Area × Height
