What is the formula for the area of a rectangle?



 A=bh

What is the VOLUME?

V=lxwxh (or Bh)

V= 4x3x2 (B is the 4x3 which finds the Base of the figure)

V= 24 cubic units

100

L = 12 x 2 = 24

(it take 2 half cm cubes for each one cm)

W =4 x 2 = 8

H = 8 x 2  = 16


24 x 8 x 16 = 3072 cubes

 Find the TOTAL surface area of the triangular prism.




136 square units

triangles:  6 x 4 /2 = 12

                6 x 4 /2 = 12

Rectangles: 7 x 5 = 35

                 7 x 6 = 42

                 7 x 5 = 35

12 + 12 + 35 + 42 + 35 = 136 square units

A.  Find the Volume.

B.  What is the B (base)?

V = lxwxh

V =10x5x4

V=200 cubic meters

The B would be 10x5 = 50

How many cubes to fill this rectangular prism if you are using 1/3 in. cubes?


L= 13 x 3 =39

W= 6 x 3 =18

H= 10 x 3 = 30

39 x 18 x 30 = 21,060 cubes

300

What is the surface area of the rectangular prism?


62 u2

F & b:  5 x 3 x 2 = 30

L & r :  2 x 3 x 2 = 12

T & B:  5 x 2 x 2  = 20

30 + 12 + 20 = 62 square units

What is the formula for the Volume of a Rectangular Prism?

V = L x W x H


300

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 10.7 cm, a width of 4.5 cm and a height of 3.8 cm?

V = lxwxh

V = 10.7 x 4.5 x 3.8

V = 182.97 cubic cm

300

How many 1/4 in CUBES would it take to fill this box?

L = 8 x 4 = 32

W = 3 x 4 = 12

H = 12 x 4 = 48

32 x 12 x 48 = 18,432 cubes

400

9. What is the TOTAL surface area of the rectangular prism?



A 72 cm2

F & B:  3 x 6 x 2 =36

L & R:  2 x 6 x 2 = 24

T & B:  3 x 2 x 2 = 12

36 + 24 + 12 = 72 square cm

A rectangular prism has a volume of 209.061 cubic inches.  It's length is 5.34 inches and its width is 8.7 inches.  What is its height?


V= l x w x h

209.061 = 5.34 x 8.7 x h

209.061 = 46.458h

209.061/46.458 = h

4.5 inches = h

400

How many 1/7 yard cubes would it take to fill this prism?

L= 5/7 x 7  = 5

W= 2/7 x 7  = 2

H= 3/7 x 7  = 3

5 x 2 x 3 = 30 cubes

500

What is the TOTAL surface area of the rectangular prism?

What is the formula for Area of a Trapezoid?

 We haven't learned a formula for a trapezoid.

You must first decompose it into a triangle and a rectangle.

Next, find the area of the triangle and rectangle.

Finally, add the two areas together
