Volume of Prisms
Length × width × height
l×w×h
Another way to shorten the formula down and make it easier to as well find out the
volume of other type of prisms is by replacing (w × h ) = Area of cross section.
When a prism of any shape is sliced, its noticed that the shape formed after the cut is
the same as the shape that has been exposed on the outside.
Example:
Hence: Volume = area of cross section × length
Cylindrical Prism
volume of a cylinder = area of circle × height
area of circle = πr^2 πr^2 × h
Length × width × height
l×w×h
