About Volume of Square Pyramid

The Volume of Square Pyramid Calculator is a free, easy-to-use tool for computing a pyramid’s volume from its base edge length and height. Whether you're studying geometry or working in engineering, construction, or architecture, you’ll get accurate results in a click.

What is a Square Pyramid?

A square pyramid is a 3D shape with a square base and four triangular faces that meet at a single apex. Classic examples include the Great Pyramid of Giza. The volume is the total space enclosed inside the pyramid.

Common real-life examples:

History – Ancient pyramids like Giza.

Architecture – Decorative pyramid structures.

Mathematics – Visualizing 3D shapes.

Design – Models, packaging, and structures.

Formula for Volume of a Square Pyramid

Use the standard formula:

Volume = (1/3) × a² × h

Where a is the side length of the square base and h is the perpendicular height (base to apex).

Example Calculation

For a = 6 cm and h = 9 cm:

Volume = (1/3) × (6²) × 9
= (1/3) × 324
= 108 cm³
