"finding volume of a tetrahedron"
 
   Is there a formula for finding the volume of a tetrahedron? I looked through the geometry listings, but I didn't find anything about tetrahedrons. What information do I need-length of one side, height? Thanks!

   Tetrahedron is just a triangular pyramid.

Its volume is one third of the product of the area of a base (any face) and the altitude.
