The formula, explained

a*b*h/2
a : First perpendicular sideb : Second perpendicular sideh : Prism length

A flat shape alone has no volume. This calculates the solid formed by adding a perpendicular height to that base.

An example to check

Using the starting values below, the calculation gives:

48 cm³

How to use this tool

Check the required inputs: first perpendicular side, second perpendicular side, prism length.

Choose the units and options that match your task. Calculate, check the result and use Copy or Print to keep a record. Rounding applies to the display; keep more precision in intermediate steps.

Can I use a decimal comma?

Yes. Numeric fields accept 12.5 or 12,5 and spaces for thousands, such as 1 234.50. Do not mix a point and comma in one number.
