TRIANGULAR PRISM

VOLUME: BH

** B is the area of the base

** H is the height of the prism

V = (1/2bh)(height)

RECTANGULAR PRISM

VOLUME: BH

** B is the area of the base

** H is the height of the prism

V = (LW)(height)

CYLINDER

VOLUME: BH

** B is the area of the base

** H is the height of the prism

V = (3.14rr)(height)

TRIANGULAR PYRAMID

VOLUME: 1/3BH

** B is the area of the base

** H is the VERTICAL height of the prism

V = 1/3(1/2bh)(VERTICAL height)

RECTANGULAR PYRAMID

VOLUME: 1/3BH

** B is the area of the base

** H is the VERTICAL height of the pyramid

V = 1/3(LW)(VERTUCAL height)

CONE

VOLUME: 1/3BH

** B is the area of the base

** H is the VERTICAL height of the cone

SA = 1/3(3.14rr)(VERTICAL height)

SPHERE

VOLUME: 3/4 Pie r cubed

SA = 3/4(3.14rrr)

When solving for Volume, you are finding the total area that is inside a shape. Since it is 3 Dimensional, the units are cubed on the answer. The volume of a shape, in real life, is the amount of water a cup can hold or the amount of cubic gallons that are in a swimming pool. Please see the volume formulas below.
