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

What does volume measure?

Back

Volume measures the amount of space an object takes up.

Front

What are the units for measuring volume?

Back

The units for volume are always cubed (to the 3rd power).

Front

Calculate the volume of a rectangular prism with dimensions 10 yd, 5 yd, and 6 yd.

Back

Volume = 10 × 5 × 6 = 300 yd³

Front

Calculate the volume of a cylinder with a radius of 3 cm and a height of 10 cm.

Back

Volume = π × (3)² × 10 ≈ 282.74 cm³

Front

If a fish tank has a length of 45 cm, width of 25 cm, and depth of 10 cm, what is its volume?

Back

Volume = 45 × 25 × 10 = 11250 cm³

Front

What is the volume of a cube with a side length of 4 cm?

Back

Volume = side³ = 4³ = 64 cm³

Front

True or False: The volume of an object can be measured in square units.

Back

False. Volume is measured in cubic units.
