A prism in mathematics is a figure that has the same cross-sectional shape no matter where it is cut. That doesn't really explain it well but a pipe is a cylinder with a circular base so it is a prism. A Toblerone, the triangular chocolate, is a triangular prism (almost). A box, a crate, a rectangular sky scraper is a rectangular prism.
They all have a volume = area of base x height.

Finding the volume of a prism?
A person can find the volume of a prism by 1/2 x length x width x height. This formula works for a triangular prism.
What is the formula for finding the volume of an octagonal prism?
The Area of its base times the height of the shape.
What is the general formula for finding the volume of a prism or cylinder?
Area=Bh when B=area of the base, and h=height of the prism/cylinder
The formula for finding the volume of a triangular prism?
A triangular prism can be thought of as a stack of triangles. Then the volume is equal to the area of the triangular base multiplied by the height of the prism, or 1/2 length * width * height.
