Volume and Surface Area of Prisms
Volume:
The Volume of prisms can be calculated by multiplying area of cross-section and length.
formula - area of cross-section * length
Area of cross-section: it the area where you via the shape and the shape and area remains same
Different formulas are used for different area cross-section, here are few examples:
Area of cross-section of a cylinder: π*r^2
Volume of a cylinder: Area of cross-section of a cylinder * length
where:
r=radius
Surface Area:
Surface area of a 2-d shape is adding area of it's all sides.
But there are formulas for few:
surface area of a cylinder: =area of circle*2 + area of rectangle
=2πr^2 + 2πrh
here:
length- 2πr
