12-96th grade math Volume of Rectangular Prisms
Objective • To find the volume of rectangular prisms • Why? To know how to use formulas and evaluate variable expressions using the order of operations. To further your knowledge of geometry and measurement.
California State Standards MG 1.3: Know and use … the formula for the volume of a rectangular solid. AF 3.1: Use variables in expressions describing geometric quantities AF 3.2: Express in symbolic form simple relationships arising from geometry. MR 1.3: Determine when and how to break a problem into simpler parts. MR 2.2: Apply strategies and results from simpler problems to more complex problems.
Vocabulary • Rectangular prism • A prism whose base is a rectangle • Volume of a solid (A prism) • The number of unit cubes it will fit into a space figure • Filling the solid
How to Find the Volume of Rectangles • Observe or draw the figure. Be sure all measurements are in equal labels. 2) Write out the formula: B x h (B = l x w) or l x w x h 3) Check work and add label³ to answer. Pit dimensions: base = 12 ft. x 7 ft. height = 2 ft 12 x 7 x 2 = 168 ft³
Find volume of rectangular prism: l = 5 ¾ , w = 2 ¼ , h = 1 ⅓ 5 ¾ x 2 ¼ x 1 ⅓ = 23 x 9 x 4 4 4 3 9 x 4 = 3 • 3 1 3 X 23 = 69 1 4 4 = 17 ¼ in³
Try It! Find the volume • 5 ft, 8 ½ ft, 2 ft • ½ in, 8 in, 10 in • 2 ft, 2 ½ ft, 7 ft • 2 ft, 1 ½ ft, 6 in for 8 bags • 5 x 8.5 x 2 = 85 ft³ 2) 0.5 x 8 x 10 = 40 in³ 3) 2 x 2.5 x 7 35 ft³ • (2 x 1.5 x 0.5) x 8 = (1.5) x 8 = 12 ft³
Objective Review • To find the volume of rectangular prisms • Why? You now know how to use formulas and evaluate variable expressions using the order of operations. You have furthered your knowledge of geometry and measurement. • The volume of any rectangular prism is the product of its length, width, and height, or V=lwh
