Volume of a Cube
Volume of a Cube
\[V = a^3\]
Variables
V = volume (m³)
a = edge length of the cube (m)
Description
What is this formula?
This formula calculates the volume of a cube using the length of one edge. Since all edges of a cube are equal, the volume is obtained by raising the edge length to the third power.
When to use it
Use this formula when determining the internal capacity or occupied space of cubic objects and structures.
Example
If a cube has an edge length of 4 m:
V = 4^3 = 64 m^3
