Volume of cube using its space diagonal

0 0 3 minutes read

Given the length of space diagonal of a cube as d. The task is to calculate the volume occupied by the cube with the given length of space diagonal. Space diagonal is a line connecting two vertices that are not on the same face.

Cube

Examples:

Input: d = 5 
Output: Volume of Cube: 24.0563

Input: d = 10
Output: Volume of Cube: 192.45

Volume of cube whose space diagonal is given: $\sqrt{3} \frac{d^3}{9}$

Proof:

Let d = the length of diagonal |AB| and
let a = the length of each side of the cube.
Pythagoras #1 in triangle ACD:
$(AC)^2=(a)^2+(a)^2 AC = \sqrt{2}a $$
Pythagoras #2 in triangle ABC:
$(AB)^2=(\sqrt{2}a)^2+(a)^2 AB = \sqrt{3}a $$
Now we can solve for a in terms of d:
$$a=\frac{d}{ \sqrt{3} }$
This means that the volume V is:
$V=a^3=\frac{d^3}{3 \sqrt{3}} = \frac{\sqrt{3}d^3}{9}$$

Below is the required implementation:

C++

// C++ program to find the volume occupied
// by Cube with given space diagonal
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to calculate Volume
float CubeVolume(float d)
{
    float Volume;
 
    // Formula to find Volume
    Volume = (sqrt(3) * pow(d, 3)) / 9;
 
    return Volume;
}
 
// Drivers code
int main()
{
 
    // space diagonal of Cube
    float d = 5;
 
    cout << "Volume of Cube: "
         << CubeVolume(d);
 
    return 0;
}

Java

// Java program to find the volume occupied 
// by Cube with given space diagonal 
 
public class GFG{
     
    // Function to calculate Volume 
    static float CubeVolume(float d) 
    { 
        float Volume; 
     
        // Formula to find Volume 
        Volume = (float) (Math.sqrt(3) * Math.pow(d, 3)) / 9; 
     
        return Volume; 
    } 
     
    // Drivers code 
    public static void main(String []args)
    { 
     
        // space diagonal of Cube 
        float d = 5; 
     
        System.out.println("Volume of Cube: " + CubeVolume(d)); 
     
    }
