You cannot find the volume of a square. You can find the volume of a cube, which is finding the length of one edge of the cube and taking that to the third power, or cubing it.

Volume of a square prism?

Let x= each side. To find volume, just cube this. Example: if each side equals 8, volume would be 8x8x8= 512


What happens to the volume of a cone if the radius is double and the height is unchanged?

Since the volume of a cone is proportional to the square of the radius (look at the formula), double the radius would mean four times the volume.


The volume of the rectangular prism base area 56 in. and height 6 in.?

The base area cannot be 56 inches because 56 inches is NOT a measure of area - it is a measure of distance.If, the base area was 56 SQUARE inches, the area would be 56*6 = 336 CUBIC inches.


How do you find the base of a square pyramid when you only have the volume and height?

The base of a square pyramid is the only face that is a square - all the others are triangular in shape. So you do not need any measurements to determine which is the base.


Why can you not find the volume of an circle by multiplying the length by its width by its height?

A circle is not three-dimensional. It is a two-dimensional shape than can have an area, but not a volume. A column or cannister would have calculable volumes because they are three-dimensional shapes.To find the area of any circle, just remember 'Pie are square'. Of course, everybody knows that cakes are square and pies are round, but this is a different sort of pie. It is actually spelled pi. And the 'are' is actually an 'r' to signify 'radius'. In math, when we 'square' something, we are multiplying it by itself.

Square yards. Cubic measure is for volume


What equation is used to find the volume of a square?

There are none because a square can't be expressed in terms of volume

How do you find the circumference of a cylinder with height and volume?

Divide the volume by height first. Then divide the quotient which is the area by pi. Next find the square root of that number. The diameter of the base would be double the square root and then multiply the diameter by pi.


How do you figure out the area of a side of a cube if you know the volume?

The formula for volume is side cubed, and the formula for a square's area is side squared, so you find the cube root of the volume and square your answer to find area.


How do you find the perpendicular height of a square based pyramid?

To find the perpendicular height of a square pyramid, first compute for the volume of the pyramid. Then divide the volume by the area of the base to find pyramid's height.


A regular pyramid with a square base has a volume of 9M squared and an edge measuring 3M. Find the volume of a similar solid that has edge measuring of 4M?

The volume of the similar solid would be 16M squared.


What is the formula for finding lengths of a square when you are given a volume?

None exist. A square is a measurement of area, length is a linear measurement and volume is a capacity. To find the lengths of a square from the area, take the square root of the area. To find the lengths of a cube from the volume, take the cube root of the volume. To clarify: Area refers to a two-dimensional space. Volume is three dimensional, and thus appropriate for a cube or ball, not a square or circle.


How do you find the lateral sides of a square prism if you already have the volume?

If you mean by a square prism that has equal sides then just cube root the volume


How do you find the base of a square prism if you know the volume and height?

Base = sqrt(Volume/Height)


How do you find the volume of a square with equal faces?

a square is a 2 dimension object. we can not find volume of a 2-D object... if u are asking that of a cube with equal sides, then simply find (a^3) where a is side of the cube.


How do you find the square footage of a hole?

You can't, a hole has volume and thefore needs to be measured in cubic footage. Square footage is a measure of area not volume.
