PAGE SUMMARY
Use this calculator to work out the volume of common 3D shapes.
It covers cuboids, cubes, cylinders, spheres, cones and triangular prisms.
Useful for school maths, GCSE revision, homework checks and formula practice.
Curved solids use π and the result is volume in cubic units.
See formulas, examples and extra volume help on the next pages.
Related maths pages are linked below for area, perimeter and more Teletext-Tools pages.
HOW TO USE
Choose a 3D shape, enter the measurements shown and press SOLVE.
Only the measurements needed for that solid are shown.
Curved solids use π and the result is rounded to your chosen setting.
CUBOID / CUBE
Cuboid: V = L × W × H
Cube: V = s³
Example: 8 × 5 × 3 = 120
CYLINDER
V = πr²h
Example: r = 4, h = 10 gives about 502.65
SPHERE
V = 4/3 πr³
Example: r = 3 gives about 113.10
CONE
V = 1/3 πr²h
A cone uses the same circular base idea as a cylinder, then divides by 3.
TRIANGULAR PRISM
V = (½bh) × L
Find the triangular cross-section area first, then multiply by the prism length.

VOLUME CALCULATOR FOR 3D SHAPES
This page helps calculate the volume of common 3D solids quickly and clearly.
It suits learners checking formulas for cuboids, cylinders, spheres and cones.
It is useful for school maths, GCSE questions and revision practice.
CUBIC UNITS
Volume is measured in cubic units.
If lengths are in cm, the answer is in cm³.

WORKED EXAMPLES
Cuboid: 12 × 4 × 2 = 96
Cube: 5³ = 125
Sphere: 4/3π × 2³ ≈ 33.51
Cone: 1/3π × 3² × 6 ≈ 56.55
WHY THIS PAGE HELPS
It gives a quick answer and a clear volume method.
It helps users compare different 3D shape formulas in one place.
It also supports the move from area and perimeter into solid geometry.
