A square-base pyramid holds exactly one-third of its bounding box: V = (base side² × height) / 3. Enter the base side and the perpendicular height for the answer with steps.
V = (s² × h) / 3 — enter dimensions, get the result with steps.
V = (s² × h) / 3
| Symbol | Meaning |
|---|---|
| s | Base side length |
| h | Perpendicular height |
Base side 6, height 9 → base area 36, V = 36 × 9 / 3 = 108 cubic units.
