Geometry: Volume of Prisms, Cylinders, Cone & Spheres

How to find the volume of the Rectangular Prism:

State the formula: V = Bh

B represents the area of the base of the prism.

B = bh

B = (7)(6)

B = 42 AND h = 30

Then substitute back into the formula:

V = Bh Write a statement:

V = (42)(30)

V = 1,260 The volume is 1,260 in3

Notice that the units must be stated as cubic units or units cubed.

TRY ONE:

State the formula: ______

Substitute back into the formula: V = Bh

Write a statement:

How to find the volume of the Triangular Prism:

State the formula: V = Bh

B represents the area of the base of the prism.

B = bh

B = (12)(11)

B = 66 AND h = 13

Then substitute back into the formula:

V = Bh Write a statement:

V = (66)(13)

V = 858 The volume is 858 cm3

Notice that the units must be stated as cubic units or units cubed.

TRY ONE:

State the formula: ______

Substitute back into the formula: V = Bh
