NAME DATE PERIOD Study Guide and Intervention Volume of Rectangular Prisms The volume of a solid is the measure of space occupied by it. It is measured in cubic units such as cubic centimeters (cm 3 ) or cubic inches (in 3 ). The volume of the figure at the right can be shown using cubes. 3 m } The bottom layer, or base, has 4 3 or 12 cubes. 4 m two There are layers. It takes 12 2 or 24 cubes to fill the box. So, the volume of the box is 24 cubic meters. A rectangular prism is a solid figure that has two parallel and congruent sides, or bases, that are rectangles. To find the volume of a rectangular prism, multiply the area of the base and the height, or find the product of the length, the width w, and the height h.

NAME DATE PERIOD Study Guide and Intervention Surface Area of Rectangular Prisms The sum of the areas of all the surfaces, or faces, of a three-dimensional figure is the surface area. The surface area S of a rectangular prism with length, width w, and height h is found using the following formula. S 2 w 2 h 2wh Find the surface area of the rectangular prism. You can use the net of the rectangular prism to find its surface area. There are three pairs of congruent faces in a rectangular prism: top and bottom front and back two sides side 2 m bottom front side 3 m Faces Area top and bottom (4 3) (4 3) 24 3 m top front and back (4 2) (4 2) 16 4 m two sides (2 3) (2 3) 12 Sum of the areas 24 16 12 52 Alternatively, replace with 4, w with 3, and h with 2 in the formula for surface area.
