Question

the formula for calculating the of prisms is v = b x h.
in the formula for the volume of a prism, the letter b stands for the of the base.
the volume of a rectangular prism is found by multiplying its length, , and height.
the volume of a triangular prism can be found by first finding the area of the base triangle and then multiplying it by the of the prism.

Explanation:

• For the first blank, the formula \(V = B\times h\) is for calculating the volume of prisms.
• In the formula \(V = B\times h\), \(B\) represents the area of the base.
• The volume formula of a rectangular prism is \(V=l\times w\times h\) (where \(l\) is length, \(w\) is width, \(h\) is height), so the second - blank is width.
• For a triangular prism, using the formula \(V = B\times h\) (where \(B\) is the area of the base triangle), the last blank is height (or length) of the prism.

Answer:

1. volume
2. area
3. width
4. height (or length)
