How to calculate the volume of Prism ?
Prism
A prism is a three-dimensional geometric shape that has two parallel, identical bases connected by rectangular or parallelogram-shaped sides, The followings steps are describe you how to calculate the Volume of prism
Formula to Find the volume of prism = Base Area × Height (Length of the Prism)
For Example From the above image
Base 1 (B1) = 8.00 m
Base 2 (B2) = 4.00 m
Height of the trapezoid (h) = 3.00 m
Length of the prism (L) = 6.00 m
STEP -01 – Calculate the base Area
Base Area= (1/2) × (Base 1+Base 2) × Height
So, Base Area= (1/2) × (8 +4 ) × 3 = 18.00 m2
STEP -02 – Volume of the Prism
Volume =Base Area × Height (Length of the Prism)
Base Area = 18m2, Length as per above image 6.00 m
so, Volume = 18 x 6 = 108.00 m3
The volume of the trapezoidal prism is 108.00 m³.
