How do you find the volume of a circle based pyramid?
Wouldn't a circle-based pyramid look a lot like a cone ? If so, you could probably use the formula for the volume of a cone and get away with it.
What is the formula for the volume of a pyramid and cone?
Cone: (1/3) * Pi * Radius² * Height Pyramid: (1/3) * (Base Area) * Height
How are the volumes of right pyramid and right cone related to the volume of a right prism and right cylinder?
The volume of the pyramid and cone is one third the volume of the corresponding (ie same [size] base and height) prism and cylinder.
How is finding the volume of a pyramid like finding the volume of a cone?
Because the formula is the same: volume = 1/3base areaheight
How are a cone and a pyramid alike?
Start with a regular tetrahedron (triangular based pyramid). As you increase the number of sides in the base of the pyramid, the shape becomes more and more like a right cone. In the limit, the base tends to a polygon with an infinite number of sides - a circle, and the pyramid tends to a right cone.
Who calculated the volume of a pryramids and cone?
We did and the volume of a pyramid and a cone is 1/3*base area*perpendicular height given in cubic units.
The formula for the volume of a cone is most like the formula for the volume of which figure?
The formula for a pyramid. The volume of a pyramid is (1/3)(B)(h). The volume of a cone is essentially the same: (1/3)(B=πr2)(h)
How do you find volume of cone and pyramid if they did not give you high?
You don't.

The volume of the pyramid and cone is one third the volume of the corresponding (ie same [size] base and height) prism and cylinder.
Is a cone a pyramid or a prism?
A cone is a common pyramid-like figure where the base is a circle or other closed curve instead of a polygon. A cone has a curved lateral surface instead of several triangular faces, but in terms of volume, a cone and a pyramid are just alike.
How is finding the volume of a pyramid like finding the volume of a cone?
Because the formula is the same: volume = 1/3base areaheight

How do you get the volume of triangle?
Well most of the time there is nothing such as the volume of a triangle but there is cone and pyramid... Cone is 1/3 x pi x radius squared x height Pyramid 1/3 x area of base x height I think...
How do you figure out the volume of a pyramid or a cone?
In both cases, the formula for volume is 1/3 times the base area times the height.
What is the formula to figure out the volume of a square-based pyramid?
Vol = 1/3 * base area x vertical height for any pyramid (or cone).
