What is the formula for finding the volume of a trapezoidal prism?
area of base x height area of base x height
What is the formula of finding base area of a rectangular prism?
The base of a rectangular prism is just an old familiar 2D rectangle. All the old familiar 2D formulas for rectangles still apply to it.
The formula for finding the volume of a triangular prism?
A triangular prism can be thought of as a stack of triangles. Then the volume is equal to the area of the triangular base multiplied by the height of the prism, or 1/2 length * width * height.
What is the volume in formula of prism?
The volume of a prism is the area of the base (or the cross section of the prism that is perpendicular to the height) times the height.V = Ab * h
How are a triangular prism and a rectangular prism are they different?
a triangular prism is different from a rectangular prism because: their names are different a triangular prism has a triangle for its' base a rectangular prism has a rectangle base a triangular prism has less sides than a rectangular prism a rectangular prism has more sides than a triangular prism
What is the formula for finding the base area of a triangular prism?
It depends on what information you have.
What is the formula for finding the volume of an octagonal prism?
The Area of its base times the height of the shape.
What is the formula for finding the volume of a trapezoidal prism?
area of base x height area of base x height
What is the general formula for finding the volume of a prism or cylinder?
Area=Bh when B=area of the base, and h=height of the prism/cylinder
Is the formula for finding area of a triangular prism base times height divided by 2?
yes.
What is the formula for finding the volume of a cube or rectangular prism?
bwh base times width times hight
What is the formula for finding the volume of a right triangular prism?
Base times height divided by two times length
What is the formula for finding the vertices edgesand faces for any prism?
A prism with an n-sided base will have 2n vertices, n + 2 faces, and 3n edges.
What is the formula of finding base area of a rectangular prism?
The base of a rectangular prism is just an old familiar 2D rectangle. All the old familiar 2D formulas for rectangles still apply to it.
What is the formula for finding volume on any right prism?
by finding the area of the base (ex if a square its side times side) and then multiplying that product by the height :D
What is the formula for finding the volume of a triangular based prism?
Volume = Area of the base X height of prism. This formula works for all prisms, not just triangular prisms. Area of a triangle = height of triangle X 1/2 X base of triangle.
The formula for finding the volume of a triangular prism?
A triangular prism can be thought of as a stack of triangles. Then the volume is equal to the area of the triangular base multiplied by the height of the prism, or 1/2 length * width * height.
