# of cubic units it takes to fill a three dimensional shapes Volume # of cubic units it takes to fill a three dimensional shapes Units will be cubed To the third power
Prism Solid with two parallel and congruent polygonal faces called bases. Named by the shape of its base.
Volume of Prisms V = Bh “B” is the AREA of the base
Example Find the volume of the triangular prism. V = Bh V = ( bh) h V = 180 cm3
You Try! Find the volume of the cylinder. V =Bh V = V = cm3 This answer is in terms of pi
