11.3- Volume of Prisms and Cylinders

Front

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

Back

Volume = length × width × height

Front

What is the formula for the volume of a cylinder?

Back

Volume = π × radius² × height

Front

How do you estimate the volume of a solid?

Back

Round dimensions to the nearest whole number, then apply the volume formula.

Front

What units are used to measure volume?

Back

Cubic units (e.g., cm³, in³, yd³) are used to measure volume.

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with dimensions 5 yd, 6 yd, and 11 yd?

Back

Volume = 5 × 6 × 11 = 330 yd³

Front

If a cylinder has a radius of 3 cm and a height of 10 cm, what is its volume?

Back

Volume = π × 3² × 10 ≈ 94.2 cm³

Front

What is the relationship between the volume of a prism and its base area?

Back

Volume = Base Area × Height.

Front

How do you round volume measurements to the nearest tenth?

Back

Look at the hundredths place; if it's 5 or more, round up.

Front

What is the volume of a cylinder with a diameter of 4 cm and a height of 5 cm?

Back

Volume = π × (2)² × 5 ≈ 20π ≈ 62.8 cm³

Front

What is the volume of a solid with a base area of 50 cm² and a height of 4 cm?

Back

Volume = 50 × 4 = 200 cm³
