In general, volume is length times width times depth. This is easy to calculate if the object whose volume you wish to know happens to be cubical or rectilinear in shape. If it an irregular shape, such as (let us say) an octopus, then the calculation is more complicated. In theory, any three dimensional shape can be approximated by some finite number of cubes. Integral calculus can also be used in some cases (although it would be really difficult with an octopus). With a real octopus, you could also just put it into a graduated cylinder filled with water and see how much water it displaces. So volume is not always found by means of a formula.
What else can I help you with?
What shape has the most surface area?
least volume and most surface area is 3D triangle
How do you find the volume of a trapezium?
A trapezium is a 2D shape; volume it an attribute of 3D shapes. The volume of all trapezia is 0.
This 3d shape has a corner on a shape?
Many 3d shapes have a corner.
What is a 12 sided 3D shape?
A 12 sided 3D shape is a dodecahedron.
What is a 3D 30 sided shape?
A tridekahedron is a 3D 30 sided shape.
When working with a 3d shape does it change the volume?
The answer will depend on what "it" is.
How do you find the volume of a 3D shape?
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.
What is the amount a 3D shape can hold called?
Volume. The formula depends on the shape.
What is inside of a 3d shape?
It's volume.
What is the space called in a 3D shape?
Volume
What is the formula to get the volume of a triangle?
There is none because a triangle is a 2D shape and volume measures 3D shapes ----------------------------------------------------------------- There is not one. Triangles are two dimensional, volume is three dimensional, a triangle can therefore have an area but not a volume.
The space inside a shape is its what?
The 3D space inside a shape is it's volume.
How does a 2D shape look different from a 3D shape?
A 2D shape is flat and only has a surface area whereas a 3D shape is an object that has surface area and volume.
Is a sphere is a solid shape. True or false?
It is a volume (3D) shape - "solid" has nothing to do with it.
Do you multiply the width by the length and by the height to get an answer for the volume of an 3d shape?
Only if the shape is a cuboid.
Formula for volume of 3D shape?
Length x Width x Height * * * * * That is only true if the shape is a cuboid. Not if it is a sphere, cylinder, cone, prism, pyramid - all of which have relatively simple formulae.
What is the formula for a 3d shapes?
A 3D shape must have length x width x depth.
