The results include the proof of two theorem generalizations for the calculation of said volume with either of the three given elements via the principles of geometric similarity. It is shown that, due to the similarity between the full cone and the smaller removed cone, the volume of the truncated cone can be expressed using the di\u001berence of cubes of the corresponding linear dimensions. Revisiting the classical volume formula through the principles of geometric similarity, this work provides six alternative expressions that have both theoretical value and direct applications, especially in the field of education.<\/p>\n<p><em>Keywords:<\/em> Right circular truncated cone, Volume formulas, Geometric similarity, Multi-dimensional parameterization, Educational, applied, and theoretical value<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/azbuki.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/math_2_2026_blagovest-ivanov.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Open the full text<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blagovest Ivanov 164th High School &#8222;Miguel de Cervantes&#8220;, Sofa, Bulgaria https:\/\/doi.org\/10.53656\/math2026-1-3-vtc Abstract.
