Question

Match the following, where
$s$ = side of a square, $l$ = length, $w$ = width, $h$ = height

• A. $l\times w\times h$
• B. $s^3$
• C. $s^2$
• D. $l\times w$

Answer 1

Area of a square = side $\times$ side
Area of a square = $s\times s$

Area of a rectangle = length $\times$ width
Area of a rectangle = $(l\times w)$



Volume of the Cube = area of base $\times$ height
In a cube, base = height = $s$
$\therefore$ Volume of the Cube $=\left(s^2\right)\times s$
$=s^3$





Volume of Prism = area of base $\times$ height
Volume of Prism = $(l\times w)\times h$
