What is the formula for calculating the volume of a triangular prism?
The volume of a three-dimensional figure is the amount of space it encloses. The volume V of a triangular prism is the product of the area B of a base and the height h of the prism. (The bases are triangles. In a special case of a right triangular prism the bases are right triangles)
What is the volume of the prism with measurements of 6 5 and 3?
I presume you mean a rectangular prism. Assuming all the angles are right angles, so that it is a rectangular parallelepiped, the volume is just the product of the three dimensions. I get 90.
A square pyramid has a height of 18cm and base that measures 12cm on each side explain whether tripling the height would triple the volume of the pyramid?
Yes, the volume triples. When you have a height of 18, the volume will equal 864. (Volume of a pyramid is the area of the base x the height x 1/3)18*3=54. When you plug this in to the above listed formula, the volume will be 2592. Divide that by three and you get 864.
What is the width of a rectangular prism that is 9 yards long and 8 yards high with a volume of 144?
The volume of a rectangular prism is equal to length x width x height. Therefore, you have to choose the width so that the product of the three numbers is equal to the volume, i.e., equal to 144.
Name the faces of the 7 sided polyhedron?
There are a number of possible 7-sided polyhedra. Three that come immediately to mind are: a hexagonal pyramid, a pentagonal prism, a "stretched" triangular pyramid (triangular base, rectangular sides, and then triangular faces meeting at an apex).
A prism has three times the volume of a pyramid with the same base and altitude?
True
How does the volume of a prism compare to the volume of the pyramid with the same base and height?
The volume of the prism is three times as much as that of the prism.
Which has more sides pyramid or triangular prism?
depends what kind of pyramid, if its a four sided pyramid then its the same but if its a three sided pyramid then the triangular prism has more
What is a three dimensional shape that is named for its bases?
A prism or a pyramid
How do you find the volume a rectangular prism?
-- Measure the length, width, and height of the prism. -- Multiply the three numbers. The result is the volume of the prism.
How do you calculate volume of a rectan gular prism?
Measure, then multiply(length of the prism) x (width of the prism) x (height of the prism) .The product of the three dimensions is the volume of the prism.
How does a rectangular pyramid compare to a triangular prism?
They are three dimension shaes - but different.
What is a polygons that form the sides of a prism or pyramid called?
A three sided trangle
What is a triangular prism that always three faces that are triangles?
That's a triangular pyramid.
What is the altitude of a right triangular prism?
There are three altitudes to any triangle and you need to specify which one.
What three-dimensional shape starts with the letter p?
Take your choice of a pyramid or a prism.
Is there a three- d shape that has 7 faces?
Yes a hexagonal pyramid and a pentagonal prism
