Volume of Prisms by Ronni Atchley
Loading the math board and drawing, please wait…
This example demonstrates the calculation of the volume of prisms. Key mathematical concepts include the base area and height of the prism. Using GeoGebra commands such as Polygon, Prism, Area, and Volume, the shape and size of the prism can be dynamically changed to intuitively understand the changes in volume. Suitable for students at the junior high school level and above for studying solid geometry.
