Key Idea: Volume
Volume measures the amount of space a 3D figure occupies.
It involves three dimensions multiplied together.
General Rule:
Volume = Base Area × Height
Different 3D shapes have specific formulas (listed on the SAT Reference Sheet).
Units are always cubic (e.g., cm^3, in^3).
Why this matters for the SAT:
Volume questions test your understanding of 3D geometry.
Always refer to the SAT Reference Sheet for the correct formula and ensure units are consistent.
