Prisms and Cylinders
Q1.How do you find the volume of a rectangular prism?
Length × width × height. If it's 5 × 3 × 4 cm, volume = 60 cm³.
Q2.What's the formula for cylinder volume?
V = πr²h (area of circular base × height).
Pyramids, Cones, and Spheres
Q3.What's the formula for pyramid volume?
V = (1/3) × base area × height. It's 1/3 of a prism with the same base and height.
Q4.What's the formula for cone volume?
Q5.What's the formula for sphere volume?
