| − | + | <p>To calculate the volume of a pyramid, use the formula <math>V = \frac{1}{3}lwh</math>, where ''l'' and ''w'' are the length and width of the base, and ''h'' is the height. You can also use the equivalent formula <math>V = \frac{1}{3}A_{b}h</math>, where <math>A_{b}</math> is the area of the base and ''h'' is the height. The method varies slightly depending on whether the pyramid has a triangular or a rectangular base. If you want to know how to calculate the volume of a pyramid, just follow these steps.</p> | |
