Volume of a rectangular prism
The volume of a rectangular prism is found by multiplying its length, width, and height.
[tex]\large\tt\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:V=l\times w\times h[/tex]
- [tex]\tt V=l\times w\times h[/tex]
- [tex]\tt V=8m\times 4.5m \times 6m[/tex]
- [tex]\tt V={216m^3}[/tex]
Therefore, the volume of a rectangular prism is 216m³
Another formula can be used if the area of the base (B) is given.
[tex]\large\tt\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:V=B\times h[/tex]
- [tex] \tt V = B \times h[/tex]
- [tex]\tt V = 36m^2\times 6m[/tex]
- [tex] \tt V = {216m^3}[/tex]
Therefore, the volume of a rectangular prism is 216m³
