Prisms and Pyramids Assignment

Front

What is the formula for the volume of a pyramid?

Back

Volume = (1/3) × Base Area × Height

Front

What is the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

Volume = Length × Width × Height

Front

What units do we use when calculating volume?

Back

Cubic units (e.g., cm³, m³)

Front

Find the volume of a rectangular prism with dimensions 10 cm × 8 cm × 5 cm.

Back

Volume = 10 cm × 8 cm × 5 cm = 400 cm³

Front

What is the surface area of a prism?

Back

Surface area is the total area of all the surfaces of a 3D shape.

Front

How do you find the surface area of a rectangular prism?

Back

Surface Area = 2(Length × Width + Length × Height + Width × Height)

Front

What is a prism?

Back

A prism is a solid shape with two identical ends and flat sides.

Front

What is a pyramid?

Back

A pyramid is a solid shape with a polygonal base and triangular faces that meet at a point.

Front

Find the volume of a triangular prism with a base area of 20 cm² and height of 10 cm.

Back

Volume = Base Area × Height = 20 cm² × 10 cm = 200 cm³

Front

What is the difference between a prism and a pyramid?

Back

A prism has two parallel bases, while a pyramid has one base and triangular faces.
