# 11.3 Volume of a Prism / Cylinder

# 11. 3
  • (1-19) all
  • Volume of a Prism or Cylinder = BH
  • B = area of the base which means that B will be substituted with one of the following formulas depending on what shape(s) your base(s) is/are:
  • A of a triangle = 1/2 bh
  • A of a parallelogram = bh
  • A of a trapezoid = 1/2 (b1 + b2) h
  • A of a regular polygon = 1/2 asn
  • A or a kite = 1/2 d1 * d2
  • A of a circle= pi r ^2
  • A of a sector = a/360 * pi r^2
  • A of a segment = a/360 - 1/2 bh
  • A of an annulus = pi (R^2 - r^2)

Don't forget to take some time to prepare for Friday's Ch. 10 Test after you're finished with tonight's easy homework!
