Shape	Formula	Variables
Rectangular Prism	V = l × w × h	l=length, w=width, h=height
Cylinder	V = πr²h	r=radius, h=height
Sphere	V = (4/3)πr³	r=radius
Cone	V = (1/3)πr²h	r=radius, h=height
Pyramid	V = (1/3)Bh	B=base area, h=height
Triangular Prism	V = (1/2)bhl	b=base, h=height, l=length

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate are the calculations?

Calculations use JavaScript's floating-point arithmetic with precision up to 10 decimal places. Results may show minor rounding differences compared to exact mathematical values.

What units should I use for inputs?

Use consistent units (e.g., all measurements in meters will give volume in cubic meters). The conversion tool can help convert between different volume units.

Why does my calculation differ from textbook examples?

Small differences can occur due to rounding methods or approximation of π (3.141592653589793). Ensure you're using the same values and precision as the reference.
