Volume of Rectangular Prisms

Front

What is the formula to calculate the volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

Volume = length × width × height

Front

What unit is used to measure volume?

Back

Cubic units (e.g., cubic feet, cubic inches, cubic centimeters)

Front

If a rectangular prism has a length of 3 ft, a width of 2 ft, and a height of 2 ft, what is its volume?

Back

12 cubic feet

Front

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

Back

It means the volume is measured in a three-dimensional space where each side is 1 inch.

Front

How do you convert cubic feet to cubic inches?

Back

Multiply the volume in cubic feet by 1728 (since 1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches).

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with dimensions 5 cm × 5 cm × 5 cm?

Back

125 cubic centimeters

Front

If the volume of a rectangular prism is 36 cubic feet, what could be one possible set of dimensions?

Back

6 ft × 3 ft × 2 ft (since 6 × 3 × 2 = 36)

Front

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 4 in, width of 3 in, and height of 2 in?

Back

24 cubic inches

Front

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

Back

The volume increases as any of the dimensions (length, width, height) increase.

Front

If a rectangular prism has a volume of 20 cubic inches and a height of 5 inches, what is the area of the base?

Back

4 square inches (since Volume = base area × height, base area = Volume / height = 20 / 5).
