The Height of Cut Cuboid formula calculates the total height of a cuboid that has been partially cut. It is the sum of the residual height (remaining portion) and the missing height (cut-off portion) of the cuboid.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: This formula simply adds together the remaining height after cutting and the height of the portion that was removed to get the original total height.
Details: Calculating the total height of a cut cuboid is important in geometry, construction, and manufacturing to determine original dimensions or verify measurements after material removal.
Tips: Enter both residual height and missing height in meters. Values must be non-negative numbers.
Q1: What units should I use for the inputs?
A: The calculator uses meters as the default unit, but you can use any consistent unit of length as long as both inputs use the same unit.
Q2: Can this formula be used for other shapes?
A: This specific formula applies to cuboids. Other shapes may have different formulas for calculating total dimensions after cutting.
Q3: What if the cut is not perpendicular?
A: This formula assumes a perpendicular cut. For angled cuts, more complex trigonometric calculations would be needed.
Q4: How accurate is this calculation?
A: The calculation is mathematically exact for ideal cuboids with perpendicular cuts.
Q5: Can I use this for 3D printing or CAD applications?
A: Yes, this formula is useful for reverse engineering dimensions in digital modeling and manufacturing applications.
