Write a program to find the Volume of Tetrahedron

Before writing the program of calculating the volume of a tetrahedron in different programming languages, firstly we have to know about what is tetrahedron and its formula.

What is Tetrahedron?

Tetrahedron is simply a polyhedron shape, which has 4 triangular faces, four vertices, and six edges. If the faces are all congruent equilateral triangles, then the tetrahedron is called regular.

Volume of Tetrahedron

Volume of Tetrahedron = ((a * a * a ) / (6√2))
Where, a is the side of an tetrahedron.

Program of calculating the volume of a tetrahedron in different Programming languages

Program 1: Write a Program in C language:

// This program which uses a function to find the volume of a tetrahedron.
#include <stdio.h>
float find_volume_of_tetrahedron(float a) // It is a function to find volume 
{ 
float volume_of_tetrahedron;
volume_of_tetrahedron=  ((a * a * a) / (6 * sqrt(2) )); // It is a formula for calculating the volume of tetrahedron 
return (volume_of_tetrahedron); 
} 
float main() 
{ 
float side;
printf("Enter the side of the tetrahedron:"); 
scanf("%f",&side);
printf("Surface area of the tetrahedron is: %f", find_volume_of_tetrahedron(side));   
return 0; 
} 

Output of Above C program:

Enter the side of the tetrahedron:5
Surface area of the tetrahedron is: 14.731391

Program 2: Write a Program in Java language:

// This a  Java program which finds the volume of a tetrahedron.
import java.lang.Math;
class findvolume { 
static double find_volume_of_tetrahedron(float a) 
{  
double volume_of_tetrahedron;
volume_of_tetrahedron= ((a * a * a) / (6 * Math.sqrt(2) )); // It is a formula for calculating the volume of tetrahedron 
return(volume_of_tetrahedron); 
} 
// Driver method 
public static void main(String[] args) 
{ 
float side = 5; 
System.out.println("The volume of a tetrahedron is:");
System.out.println(find_volume_of_tetrahedron(side)); 
} 
}

Output of Above Java program:

The volume of a tetrahedron is:14.731391274719739

Program 3: Write a Program in PHP programming language.

<?php 
// This a  PHP program which finds the volume of a tetrahedron.  
// Function to find volume 
function find_volume_of_tetrahedron($a) 
{   
$volume_of_tetrahedron = (($a * $a * $a) / (6 * sqrt(2) )); // It is a formula which finds the volume and store the value in the volume_of_tetrahedron variable. 
return ($volume_of_tetrahedron); 
} 
$side = 5;
echo find_volume_of_tetrahedron($side); 

?>

Output of Above PHP program:

14.73

Program 4: Write a Program in Python programming language.

# This is a python program which finds the volume of a tetrahedron. 
from  math import sqrt
def find_volume_of_tetrahedron(a):
    return ( ((a * a * a) / (6 * sqrt(2) ))) # It is a formula which finds the value of volume.
# main code begins 
side = 10
print(find_volume_of_tetrahedron(side

Output of Above Python program:
