solve volume of prisms
Rectangle is the base
V=Bh
What the heck is B?
Area of the base- How do you find area of the base?
First- ask yourself what is the shape of the base?
Its a RECTANGLE
How do you find area of a rectangle?
A=length times width!
SO how do you find area of the base with numbers
V=Bh
V= (lw)h
V= (2)(3)(6)
V= 36 cubic feet
what happens if the base is the triangle???
Same formula applies V=Bh
except the B= area of a triangle
V=Bh
V= bh/2
V=(3)(8)/2)(12)
V=12(12)
V=144 cubic cm
The Volume Song [Happy Parody]
Volume of a Triangular Prism
What about a cylinder
Same applies with the formula- V=Bh
B= area of the base
whats the base shape???? CIRCLE
