Volumes of 3-D Figures

by: Nick Sitts

Rectangular prism
V= length x width x height or V= l*w*h
l= 9in
w= 5in
h= 3in
multiply the three together (5*3*9) = 135 in^3

Triangular Prism
V= Area of the base x height or V= B*h
B= (8*3) = 12 cm^2
h= 12 cm
V= 12*12
V= 24 cm^3

Pyramid
V= *area of base*height or *B*h
B= l*w = 8*24 = 192 in^2
h= 10 in
V= *192*10
V= 640 in^3

Cone
V= *pi*radius^2*height or V= **r^2*h
r= 8 m
h= 15 m
V= **8^2*15
V= 1005.3 m^3

Cylinder
V= *radius^2*height or r^2*h
r= 8
h= 15
V= *8^2*15
V= 3015.9 cm^3

Sphere

(the format of the picture makes this look like an egg, but I assure you it is a sphere)

V= 4/3*radius^2 or 4/3r^2
r= 30 m
V= 4/3*30^2
V= 3769.9 m^3
