This pyramid calculator can help you calculate the volume, base, lateral and surface areas, height or base width & length of any right rectangular pyramid if you know the required dimensions.


I want to solve for:*
Base length (Bl):*
Base width (Bw):*
Pyramid Height (Ph):*

How does this pyramid calculator work?

Depending on the unknown dimension to be computed, the algorithm of this pyramid calculator applies the following formulas:
■ In case you choose to solve for volume (V) you have to provide the base length (Bl), base width (Bw) and pyramid height (Ph) then:

Pyramid Volume Formula based on base length, base width and pyramid height

■ If you choose to compute the surface area (As) you have to know the base length (Bl), base width (Bw) and pyramid height (Ph):

Pyramid Surface Area Formula based on base length, base width and pyramid height

■ In case you select to determine the base area (AB) then you have to input both the base length (Bl), base width (Bw) then:

Pyramid Base Area Formula based on base length and base width

■ If you choose to calculate the lateral surface area (ALS) then you have to know the base length (Bl), base width (Bw) and pyramid height (Ph) then:

Pyramid Lateral Surface Area Formula based on base length, base width and pyramid height

■ In case you want to determine the pyramid height (Ph) then you have to specify the base length (Bl), base width (Bw) and the volume (V):

Pyramid Height Formula based on base length, base width and pyramid volume

■ In case you want to estimate the base width (Bw) then you have to provide the base length (Bl), pyramid height (Ph) and volume (V):

Pyramid Base Width Formula based on base length, pyramid height and volume

■ Finally in case you want to calculate the base length (Bl) then you have to give the base width (Bw), pyramid height (Ph) and the volume (V):

Pyramid Base Length Formula based on base width, pyramid height and volume
