Volume of Prisms

Flashcards to review lecture notes on the volume of prisms.

Volume of Prisms Formula:

V = Bh, where B = area of base

Triangular Prism Volume:

V = area of triangle x h

Rectangular Prism Volume:

V = area of rectangle x h

Cubic kilometres (km³), cubic metres (m³), cubic centimetres (cm³) and cubic millimetres (mm³):

Common metric units for volume.

Megalitre (ML):

1 ML = 1000 kL

Kilolitre (KL):

1 kL = 1000 L

Litre (L):

1 L = 1000 mL

Volume of a solid with a uniform cross-section:

Volume = area of cross-section X perpendicular height

Volume Formula:

V = A × perp. height

Rectangular Prism (Cuboid) Volume:

V = l x w x h

Triangular Prism Volume Formula:

V = (1/2 x b x h) x h
