A 3d trapezium (not trapesium) does not have a specific name.
Well it depends on what kind of 3d shape it is. There is a formula to find the volume of each 3d shape. The main formula for volume is Bxh. (Big B multiplied by the height.) Bxh means the area of the base times the height.
volume of a rectangular prism = length * width * height
The volume of anything is always the area of the base of the object times the height. Therefore, to find the volume the object must have a height, which makes volume work with all 3D shapes. If one is looking at a 2D shape, then there is no height so a volume cannot be calculated (note: areas may be found of 2D shapes).
