Right Prism Area
The lateral area L (area
of the vertical sides only) of
any right prism is equal to the perimeter of the
base
times the height of the prism (L
= Ph).
The total area T of
any right prism is equal to two
times the area of the base plus the lateral area.
Formula: T = 2B + Ph
VOLUME OF PRİSMS
The volume V of
any right prism is the product of B,
the area of the base, and the
height h of the prism.
Formula: V = Bh
