Easily compute the volume of a tetrahedron using this tetrahedron volume calculator. Input the edge length for a regular tetrahedron.
a = edge length of the tetrahedron
V = volume
The tetrahedron volume formula calculates the volume of a regular tetrahedron by cubing the edge length and dividing by 6√2.
| Edge length (a) | Volume (V) |
|---|---|
| 2 | 0.942809 |
| 3 | 3.181981 |
| 4 | 7.542487 |
| 5 | 14.731391 |
| 6 | 25.455844 |
To compute tetrahedron volume manually:
1. Measure the edge length (a).
2. Cube the edge length (a³).
3. Divide by 6√2 to get the volume: V = a³ / (6√2).
This tetrahedron volume calculator provides accurate results up to six decimal places. Ideal for students, mathematicians, and engineers.
• A tetrahedron has 4 triangular faces and 4 vertices.
• It is the simplest 3D polyhedron.
• The tetrahedron is used in chemistry to model molecular geometry.
• Regular tetrahedrons have equal edges and angles.
• Tetrahedrons are common in 3D graphics and structural engineering.
