1. Volume of Prisms and Cylinders

2. Vocabulary Volume- the number of cubes a three-dimensional figure can hold.

3. Any three-dimensional figure can be filled completely with congruent cubes and parts of cubes. The volume of a three-dimensional figure is the number of cubes it can hold. Each cube represents a unit of measure called a cubic unit.

4. To find the volume of a rectangular prism, you can count cubes or multiply the lengths of the edges.

6. Find the volume of the figure. Additional Example 1A: Using a Formula to Find the Volume of a Prism V = Bh The volume of the prism is 192 ft 3. Use the formula. The base is a square: B = 4  4 = 16. V = 16  12 Substitute for B and h. Multiply.V = 192

7. Find the volume of the figure. Additional Example 1B: Using a Formula to Find the Volume of a Prism V = Bh The volume of the triangular prism is 384 yd 3. Use the formula. The base is a triangle: B = 1/2  16  6 = 48. V = 48  8 Substitute for B and h. Multiply.V = 384

10. Any unit of measurement with an exponent of 3 is a cubic unit. For example, m 3 means “cubic meter” and in 3 means “cubic inch.” Reading Math

11. Finding the volume of a cylinder is similar to finding the volume of a prism.

12. A can of tuna is shaped like a cylinder. Find its volume to the nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for . Additional Example 2: Using a Formula to Find the Volume of a Cylinder V = r 2 h The radius of the cylinder is 5 m, and the height is 4.2 m V  3.14 · 5 2 · 4.2 V  329.7 The volume is about 329.7 m 3. Use the formula. Substitute for r and h. Multiply.
