Andreev's theorem says, roughly, that knowing the geometric data of a non-obtuse hyperbolic polyhedron is equivalent to knowing the combinatorial data encoded in its 1-skeleton, labeled by dihedral angles. In this talk, I will exploit this equivalence to give volume estimates for two families of ideal hyperbolic polyhedra in terms of their associated combinatorial data.
