Prism and Cylinder
Theorem 1: If a prism has a lateral area of L square units and a height of h units and each base has a perimeter of P units, then L = Ph.
Theorem 2: If a prism has a surface area of S square units and a height of h units and each base has a perimeter of P units and an area of B square units, then S = Ph + 2B.
Practice: Answer the following exercises about finding the volumes of prisms, cylinders, pyramids and cones.
