The base of a rectangular prism is a rectangle. The area of a rectangle is length times width.
Multiply the base area by the height.
If the base is a rectangle, use the formula for the area of a rectangle.
Volume of rectangular prism = area of base x height
Find th elateral area of a rectangular pyramid having height 9 , base lenght 6 and base width 7
Multiply the base area by the height.
You can only find the area of the base with this information. The volume divided by the height will give you the area of the base.
Volume = Base Area * Height So Height = Volume/Base Area
Multiply base area x height.
Volume of a rectangular prism = base x height. If volume and height are known, solve for base area by dividing volume by height.
Volume of a rectangular prism is equal to the base area x height. (V=BxH or Volume = Base Area * Height) To get the base area, simply divide the volume by the height. (B=V/H or Base Area = Volume / Height)
For the same base dimensions (base area) and the same height, the rectangular prism has more surface area.
