Any prism volume is V = BH where B is area of base and H is height of prism, so find area of the base by B = 1/2 h(b1+b2), then multiply by the height of the prism.

Explanation: To find the diagonal distance of a prism, you can use the formula: \displaystyle d = \sqrt{w^{2} + l^{2} + h^{2}}, where = height; = width, and = length. \displaystyle d = \sqrt{2^{2} + 8^{2} + 10^{2} } = \sqrt{4 + 64 + 100} = \sqrt{168} = \sqrt{4 * 42} = 2\sqrt{42}.

La fórmula para el volumen de un prisma es V = Bh , donde B es el área de la base y h es la altura. La base del prisma es un rectángulo. La longitud del rectángulo es de 9 cm y el ancho es de 7 cm.

To find volume, you basically need the three dimensions: length, width, and height. For prisms, the formulas are derived by taking the area of the shape at the end, and multiplying that times the figure's height. For pyramids, the formulas are almost the same as for prisms, only they are divided by 3.

The formula for the volume of trapezoidal prism is volume=Hh(b1+b2)/2. In this formula, b1 and b2 are the base of the trapezoid. Lower case h is the height of the trapezoid, and upper case H is the height of the prism.

Height of Prism So to calculate height, divide the volume of a prism by its base area. For this example, the volume of the prism is 500 and its base area is 50. Dividing 500 by 50 results in 10. The height of the prism is 10.

To find the surface area of a rectangular prism, measure the length, width, and height of the prism. Find the area of the top and bottom faces by multiplying the length and width of the prism. Then, calculate the area of the left and right faces by multiplying the width and height.

Direct link to david severin's post “Any prism volume is V = BH where B is area of base...” Any prism volume is V = BH where B is area of base and H is height of prism, so find area of the base by B = 1/2 h(b1+b2), then multiply by the height of the prism.

To find the volume of a right rectangular prism, we multiply the length x width x height. We know the area of a rectangle is length x width, and in the case of the prism, we have added a new dimension, which is height. So, we use the area of the base and multiply this times the height to find our volume.

The formula to find the surface area of a rectangular prism is A = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw, where w is the width, the l is the length, and the h is the height.

Volume of a sphere. The formula for the volume of a sphere is V = 4/3 πr³. See the formula used in an example where we are given the diameter of the sphere.

The formula for finding the volume of this type of prism is base area multiplied by the height. Finding the base area depends on the shape. For a rectangle, it's simply length times width. For a triangle, it's a little more complicated, with the formula being ½ base times height.

To find the volume of a rectangular prism, multiply its 3 dimensions: length x width x height. The volume is expressed in cubic units.

To find the surface area of a prism (or any other geometric solid) we open the solid like a carton box and flatten it out to find all included geometric forms. To find the volume of a prism (it doesn't matter if it is rectangular or triangular) we multiply the area of the base, called the base area B, by the height h.
