Volume of prisms, cylinders, pyramids, cones, spheres

What you'll learn

1. Compute the volume of right prisms (rectangular, triangular, hexagonal) and cylinders using V = Bh
2. Compute the volume of pyramids and cones using V = 1/3 Bh
3. Compute the volume of spheres using V = 4/3 πr³
4. Identify which volume formula applies given a figure's name, description, or diagram
5. Solve ACT-style problems that require finding a dimension (e.g., the height of a triangular base) before applying the volume formula
