11.4 Volumes of Prisms and Cylinders• Volume is the space a figure occupies.
– Measured in cubic units.
• Volume of a cube: V = s3
• Cavalieri’s Principle– If two space figures have the same height and the same
cross-sectional area at every level, then they have the same volume.
Volume of a Prism
• The volume of a prism is the product of the area of the base and the height of the prism.
• V = Bh
Finding the Volume of a Rectangular Prism• What is the volume of the Rectangular Prism?
V = Bh
V = (24)(20)(10)
V = 480 (10)
V = 4800 cm3
