Volume of Prisms and Cylinders

Geometry and Measures Volume of Prisms and Cylinders

🎬 Video Tutorial

Volume Formula for Prisms and Cylinders: V = B × h, where B is the area of the base and h is the height.
For Prisms: First calculate the area of the base shape, such as a triangle or rectangle.
For Cylinders: The base of a cylinder is a circle, so use the formula B = π × r², where r is the radius of the circular base.
Practical Application: To calculate the volume of a cylindrical object, like a can, is useful for finding the capacity of containers.

Volume formulas for prisms and cylinders showing the equation V = B × h, where B is the base area and h is the height.

Calculating the volume of a triangular prism using the formula V = B × h, with base dimensions 4 cm by 3 cm, and height 5 cm, resulting in 30 cm³.

Volume calculation of a cylinder with a radius of 2 cm and height of 5 cm, using the formula V = B × h. The final volume is approximately 62.8 cm³.
