VD means venereal disease. Yes, it is an STD. That stands for sexuallytransmitted disease.VD is not any one sexually transmitted disease in particular. Every STD is spread by sexual contact. Your symptoms would determine whether or not there is a possibility of having an STD. The only way to really know for sure is to see a doctor.

Volume of a truncated rectangular based pyramid?

(1)Best formula to use is as follows -V = h/3(Areatop + √(Areatop*Areabottom) + Areabottom)(2)To find (h) using a tape measure -Areatop => bdAreabase => acLateral edge remaining => e (from top corner to base corner)k = 1 - √(bd/ac)H= √([e/k]² - [a/2]² - [c/2]²)h = HkV = H/3*(ac-bd+bd*k)(3)Lets say Top is a rectangle with sides b & dand bottom is a rectangle with sides a & c respectively.Let height be hin that case the volume of Truncated Pyramid with rectangular base will be -V = 1/3((a²c-b²d)/(a-b))hBUT BE CAREFUL - a,b,c,d are not all independent variables (one depends on the others) so this answer is misleading!!!Proof -Suppose the height of Full Pyramid is HFrom parallel line property(H-h)/H = b/aRearrangingH = ah/(a-b) --------------------(1)AlsoSince V=1/3 Base area X HeightVolume of full pyramid = 1/3 X ac X HVolume of removed Pyramid = 1/3 X bd X (H-h)So volume of truncated part V = 1/3(acH-bd(H-h))=1/3((ac-bd)H + bdh)From (1)V = 1/3((ac-bd)ah/(a-b) + bdh)reducing and rearranging we getV = 1/3((a²c-b²d)/(a-b))h(4)In case the truncated solid forms a prism instead, we have following formula -V = ( h/6)(ad + bc + 2ac + 2bd)Proof -Fig(1)Fig(2)Lets divide the fig(1) into four different shapes as shown in fig(2)VA = Volume of cuboid = bdhVB = Volume of prism after joining both Bs= ½ X base X height X width = ½ (a-b) (d)(h)VC = Volume of prism after joining both Cs = ½ X base X height X width = ½ (c-d) (b)(h)VD = Volume of rectangular pyramid after joining all Ds = 1/3 X base area X height =1/3 (a-b) (c-d) hThen V = VA + VB + VC + VDOr, V = bdh + 1/2(a-b)dh +1/2(c-d)bh + 1/3(a-b)(c-d)hArranging and simplifying we get -V = ( h/6)(ad + bc + 2ac + 2bd)
