the shapesRectangle, Circle

and Triangle!

What shape is your base??

Rectangle A= lw

Triangle A= ½bh

*Height of a triangle - perpendicular height!*b is the measurement of the length of the base*Area is 2 dimensions - answer in units squared!

Volume of Prism Formula V = Bh

“B” is the area of the base

“h” is the measurement of the height/depth of prism.“how far apart are the bases?”

*Triangles are always considered the base*Volume is 3 dimensional - answer in units cubed!

Cylinders

What shape is your base??

Circle A= πr2

*Radius = half the diameter!!!

*Area is 2 dimensions - answer in units squared!

CylindersVolume of Prism Formula V = BhVolume of Cylinder V = πr2h
