Volume - practice problems - page 2 of 121
Volume is always the third power of length. Or volume = area times length. For example, the volume of the cube is a3, and the prism's volume is S*h (the area of the base times the height). The volume of rotating bodies (sphere, cone) can be derived in high school by integration. The pyramid's volume is always 1/3 of the prism's volume. We calculate the volume of the truncated bodies either with a formula or simply by subtracting the volumes of the two bodies.Number of problems found: 2418
