How to find the volume of a truncated cuboid
To find the volume of a truncated cuboid, you first need to know the dimensions of the larger base, the smaller base, and the height of the shape.
1. Calculate the volume of the larger cuboid base using the formula:
volume = larger base length x larger base width x height
2. Calculate the volume of the smaller cuboid base using the formula:
volume = smaller base length x smaller base width x height
3. Subtract the volume of the smaller base from the volume of the larger base to find the volume of the truncated cuboid:
volume = volume of larger base - volume of smaller base
This will give you the volume of the truncated cuboid.
