In both cases, the formula for volume is 1/3 times the base area times the height.
Vol = 1/3 * base area x vertical height for any pyramid (or cone).
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.
Cone: (1/3) * Pi * Radius² * Height Pyramid: (1/3) * (Base Area) * Height
The volume of the pyramid and cone is one third the volume of the corresponding (ie same [size] base and height) prism and cylinder.
Cone or a pyramid
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)
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.
Vol = 1/3 * base area x vertical height for any pyramid (or cone).

A star, cone, pyramid.
You don't.
