Easily calculate the volume of a frustum of a pyramid with this frustum of a pyramid volume calculator. Input upper base area, lower base area, and height.
A1 = area of upper base
A2 = area of lower base
h = height of frustum
This frustum of a pyramid formula calculates volume by averaging base areas and considering height.
| Upper Base (A1) | Lower Base (A2) | Height (h) | Volume (V) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 16 | 36 | 5 | 166.666667 |
| 9 | 25 | 6 | 120.000000 |
| 4 | 16 | 8 | 106.666667 |
| 10 | 40 | 7 | 196.666667 |
| 5 | 20 | 10 | 166.666667 |
To manually find frustum of a pyramid volume:
1. Measure areas of upper and lower bases (A1 and A2).
2. Measure the height (h).
3. Apply formula: V = (h / 3) × (A1 + A2 + √(A1 × A2))
4. Compute each step carefully to get accurate volume.
This frustum of a pyramid volume calculator provides instant, precise results using base areas and height. Ideal for students, architects, and engineers.
