The formula for finding the volume of a square prism is s²h, where s is the length of each side of the square base and h is the height of the prism. Evaluate to find the volume given values of s 4 and h = 6. (1 point)

Question

96 cubic centimeters

48 cubic centimeters

576 cubic centimeters

144 cubic centimeters

Answer 1

To find the volume of the square prism using the formula \( V = s^2h \), we can plug in the given values of \( s \) and \( h \).

Given:

• \( s = 4 \)
• \( h = 6 \)

Now, let's calculate the volume:

\[ V = s^2h = (4^2)(6) \]

Calculating \( 4^2 \):

\[ 4^2 = 16 \]

Now, substituting back into the volume formula:

\[ V = 16 \times 6 = 96 \]

Thus, the volume of the square prism is \( 96 \) cubic centimeters.

The correct answer is 96 cubic centimeters.
