Volume of Rectrangular Prisms

Front

What is the formula for calculating the volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

Volume = length × width × height

Front

What is the unit of measurement for volume?

Back

Cubic units (e.g., cubic inches, cubic meters) are used to measure volume.

Front

If a rectangular prism has a length of 5 inches, a width of 3 inches, and a height of 4 inches, what is its volume?

Back

Volume = 5 × 3 × 4 = 60 cubic inches.

Front

What does it mean if a volume is expressed in cubic centimeters?

Back

It means the volume is measured in a cube that is 1 cm on each side.

Front

How does adding a layer to a rectangular prism affect its volume?

Back

Adding a layer increases the height, thus increasing the volume.

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a base area of 12 square meters and a height of 5 meters?

Back

Volume = base area × height = 12 × 5 = 60 cubic meters.

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with dimensions 2 cm, 3 cm, and 4 cm?

Back

Volume = 2 × 3 × 4 = 24 cubic centimeters.

Front

If the dimensions of a rectangular prism are doubled, how does the volume change?

Back

The volume increases by a factor of 8 (2^3) because volume is a three-dimensional measurement.

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 10 inches, width of 2 inches, and height of 3 inches?

Back

Volume = 10 × 2 × 3 = 60 cubic inches.

Front

What is the relationship between the volume of a rectangular prism and its dimensions?

Back

The volume is directly proportional to the product of its length, width, and height.
