This rectangular prism calculator can help you find the volume, surface area, diagonal, height or width of a rectangular prism if you know the required dimensions.
How does this rectangular prism calculator work?
Depending on the figures to be solved for, this rectangular prism calculator uses the formulas explained here:
■ If you choose to calculate the volume (V), area (A) and diagonal (d) of a rectangular prism you have to provide its length (l), width (w) and height (h):
Volume (V) = l*w*h
Area (A) = 2(l*w + l*h + w*h)
Diagonal (d)= √(l2 + w2 + h2)
■ In case you want to compute the height (h), diagonal (d) and volume (V) you have to know the length (l), width (w) and area (A):
Height (h) = (S – 2*l*w) / (2*l + 2*w)
Volume (V) = l*w*h
Diagonal (d) = √(l2 + w2 + h2)
■ In case you try to solve for the height (h), area (A) and volume (V) you have to input length (l), width (w) and diagonal (d):
Height (h) = √(d2 - l2 - w2)
Volume (V) = l*w*h
Area (A) = 2(l*w + l*h + w*h)
■ If you choose to find the diagonal (d), height (h) and area (A) then you have to give the length (l), width (w) and the volume (V) of the prism:
Height (h) = V / l*w
Area (A) = 2(l*w + l*h + w*h)
Diagonal (d) = √(l2 + w2 + h2)
