Wedge Volume Calculator

Think of a wedge like a doorstop or a slice of cheese. It's thick on one side and thin on the other. Builders, students, and engineers often need to know how much space it takes up. That’s called volume.

Our Wedge Volume Calculator helps you find that fast. No pen. No paper. Just plug in the numbers and get the answer.

Why Use This Calculator?

Let’s say you’re cutting wood for a shelf or shaping foam for packing. You don’t want to guess. You need the right volume. This tool gives it to you in seconds.

It’s good for:

• School projects
• Construction work
• DIY repairs
• 3D design

And it works with both metric and inches!

How to Use It

It’s super easy. Just follow these steps:

1. Pick the wedge shape – Triangular, square, or round (like a pizza slice).
2. Enter the numbers – Width, height, length, or radius (depends on shape).
3. Choose the unit – Use cm, m, or inches.
4. Click calculate – Boom! You get the volume.

Wedge Volume Formulas (Explained Simply)

Here are the formulas the calculator uses. Don’t worry they're easy to follow.

1. Right-Angle Wedge

This one looks like a ramp.

Formula:

Volume = (b × h / 6) × (2a + e)

Where:

• b = base width
• h = height
• a = one edge of the top
• e = other edge of the top

2. Triangular Wedge

This is like a Toblerone bar.

Formula:

Volume = (1/2) × base × height × length

Use this when you know the triangle’s size and how deep the wedge goes.

3. Wedge from a Cylinder

Looks like a slice of pie!

Formula:

Volume = (2/3) × r³ × θ

• r = radius
• θ = angle in radians

This one’s common in physics and round containers.

Real-Life Example

Let’s say you have a triangular wedge:

• Base = 10 cm
• Height = 4 cm
• Length = 5 cm

Volume = (1/2) × 10 × 4 × 5 = 100 cubic cm

Done in seconds.

FAQs

Can I use inches instead of centimeters?

Yes! The calculator works with both.

Is this good for school?

Absolutely. It’s student-friendly.

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes. It works great on mobile too.

What if I get a decimal?

That’s okay. The volume can be a decimal. It just means it’s more exact.
