Hi Takahiro,

That formula is good for a square pyramid or a rectangular pyramid but what is it is a trianular pyramid or a circular pyramid (cone) or some other pyramid?

 

A general formula might be

$$volume=\frac{1}{3}\times \mbox{Area of base}\times \mbox{perpendicular height}$$

To work out the Volume of the Pyramid, the equation is listed below.

$${\mathtt{Volume}} = {\frac{\left({\mathtt{l}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{w}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{h}}\right)}{{\mathtt{3}}}}$$
