Pyramid Volume Calculator
Calculate pyramid volume from base area and perpendicular height, with square, rectangular, triangular, and regular-polygon base options.
Pyramid volume from base area and height
English search intent expects a right-pyramid workflow: pick a base shape, enter the base dimensions, then use perpendicular height for volume. The calculator supports square, rectangular, equilateral-triangle, and regular-polygon bases.
B is base area and h is perpendicular height.
Base shape support
| Base | Useful output |
|---|---|
| Square base | Volume plus supported lateral and total surface area. |
| Rectangular base | Volume and base area; lateral area depends on apex position. |
| Equilateral triangle base | Volume from side length and height. |
| Regular polygon base | Volume from side length, side count, and height. |
