Rectangular Prism – A three dimensional object with two rectangular bases and four rectangular lateral faces.
Base (B)
Base (B)
Lateral Area – the sum of the areas of the lateral faces of a prism
Total Area – the sum of the areas of all of the faces (bases and lateral faces) of a solid.
Formula for Lateral Area:
Formula for Total Area:
Lateral Area = Perimeter of Base x Height
L.A. = ph
Total Area = Lateral Area + 2(Area of the Base)
T.A. = L.A. + 2B
Volume - the amount of space that an object occupies
The units for Volume are always cubed. Examples: in3, m3, cm3.
Formula for Volume of a Right Prism:
V = Area of the base x height
V = Bh
L.A. = ph T.A. = L.A. + 2B V = Bh
We use the same formulas for lateral area, surface area and volume when dealing with other right prisms.

Therefore, to calculate Total Area and Volume of a Pyramid you must find four key pieces of information:
1. Area of the Base – e2
2. Perimeter of the Base – 4e3. Height of the object – h
4. Slant Height - l
Cylinders – Day 3
Cylinders – Cylinders are very similar to the right prisms that we have been examining. The only difference is that instead of polygons (rectangle, triangle, trapezoid, hexagon) as bases, a cylinder has circular bases. The formulas to calculate lateral area, turface area, and volume will be nearly the same as prisms.
Recall that area of a circle is calculated by using A = r2
The formula for Volume remains the same. (V = Bh). Because in this case the base is a circle, we must use the formula for finding area of a circle.
The Lateral Area and Total Area are calculated in a similar manner. However we must replace “perimeter of base” with
circumference of base.
Therefore, to calculate Total Area and Volume of a cylinder you must find three key pieces of information:
1. Area of the Base – r2
2. Circumference of the Base – 2r
3. Height of the object - given
