If the volume of a rectangular prism is 72 in³ and the base area is 12 in², what is the height?

Back

Height = Volume ÷ Base Area = 72 in³ ÷ 12 in² = 6 in.

Front

What is the relationship between area and volume in a rectangular prism?

Back

Area measures the surface of a base, while volume measures the space inside the prism.

Front

What happens to the volume if all dimensions of a rectangular prism are doubled?

Back

The volume increases by a factor of 8 (2³) because volume is a three-dimensional measurement.
