Abstract
In this paper, we use the contemporary proof (by Abrosimov and Mednykh) of the Sforza formula for volume of an arbitrary non-Euclidean tetrahedron to derive new formulas that express volumes of hyperbolic tetrahedra of special kind (orthoschemes and tetrahedra with the symmetry group S4) via dihedral angles.
