The formula for the volume of a cylinder (circular prism) is derived from the volume of a prism, where \(r\) is the radius and \(h\) is the height/length.
{3}\) of the volume of a prism with the same base and height. The volume of a pyramid can be calculated using the formula: \(\text{volume of a pyramid} = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{area of base} ...
For prisms, all the sides extend upward from the base area before being capped with a top face like a flat roof on a large building. Use the following formula variations to solve for both volume ...
