Volume and surface area of three-dimensional shapes

The volume of a three-dimensional shape is the amount of space that it occupies and is measured in cubic units. The formula for finding the volume of various shapes varies depending on the shape. The surface area of a three-dimensional shape is the total area of all its sides and is measured in square units. Like volume, the formula for finding the surface area of different shapes depends on the shape.

Examples

  1. Volume of a cube:

  2. Surface area of a rectangular prism:

  3. Volume of a sphere:
