<h1 align="center">Cuboids, Rectangular Prisms and Cubes</h1>
<p class="center"><i>Go to <a href="#Area">Surface Area</a> or <a href="#Volume">Volume</a>.</i></p>
<p style="float:right; margin: 0 0 5px 10px;"><img src="images/cuboid-lwh.svg" alt="cuboid" /></p>
<p class="larger">A <b>cuboid</b> is a box-shaped object. </p>
<p>It has six flat faces and all angles are <a href="../rightangle.html">right angles</a>.</p>
<p>And all of its faces are rectangles.</p>
<p>It is also a <a href="prisms.html">prism</a> because it has the same cross-section along a length. In fact it is a <b>rectangular prism</b>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Examples of Cuboids</h2>
<p>Cuboids are very common in our world, from boxes to buildings we see them everywhere. We can even fit them inside other cuboids!</p>
<div class="boxa"> <img src="images/cuboid-building.jpg" width="96" height="150" alt="cuboid building" /><br>
A building</div> <div class="boxa"> <img src="images/cuboid-apple-box.jpg" width="114" height="150" alt="cuboid apple box" /><br>
A box with a <br>
slot as a handle </div>
<div class="boxa"> <img src="images/cuboid-cornell-box.jpg" width="150" height="150" alt="cuboid boxes" /><br>
Cuboids in a <br>
cuboid room </div>
<div class="boxa"> <img src="images/cuboid-train-boxes.jpg" width="177" height="150" alt="cuboid model train boxes" /><br>
Boxes for model trains </div>
<div class="boxa"><img src="images/cuboid-mpossible.svg" alt="cuboid impossible" /><br>
Now that's just silly! </div><p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="float:left; margin: 0 10px 5px 0;"><a href="cuboids-rectangular-prisms.html"><img src="images/blue-cuboid.jpg" width="200" height="169" border="0" alt="cuboid" /></a></p>
<h2>Square Prism
</h2>
<p>When at least two of the lengths are equal it can also be called a <b>square prism</b>.</p>
<p>(Note: we can still call it a rectangular prism if we want!)</p>
<div style="clear:both"></div>
<p style="float:right; margin: 0 0 5px 10px;"><a href="hexahedron.html"><img src="images/blue-cube.jpg" width="190" height="190" border="0" alt="cube" /></a></p>
<h2>Cube</h2>
<p>When all three lengths are equal it is called a <b><a href="hexahedron.html">cube</a></b><a href="hexahedron.html"> (or hexahedron)</a> <br />
and each face is a square.</p>
<p>A cube is still a prism.</p>
<p>And a cube is one of the <a href="../platonic_solids.html">Platonic Solids</a>.</p>
<p >&nbsp;</p>
So:
<ul>
<div class="bigul">
<li>A cube is just a special case of a square prism, and<br />
</li>
<li>A square prism is just a special case of a rectangular prism, and<br />
</li>
<li>They are all cuboids! </li>
</div>
<br />
</ul>
<div class="words">
<p>Note: The name &quot;cuboid&quot; comes from &quot;cube&quot;<b> </b>and <i><b>-oid</b></i> (which means &quot;similar to, or resembling&quot;) and so says &quot;it is <i>like</i> a cube&quot;. </p>
<p>Another use of <b><i>-oid</i></b> is when we talk about the Earth being a spheroid (not exactly a sphere, but close).</p>
</div>
<a id="Area"></a>
<h2>Surface Area</h2>
<p>The surface area is found using the formula:</p>
<p class="center larger">Area&nbsp;=&nbsp;2&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;Width &times; Length + 2 &times; Length&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;Height +&nbsp;2 &times; Width&nbsp;&times; Height</p><p style="float:left; margin: 0 10px 5px 0;"><img src="images/cuboid-area.gif" width="160" height="211" alt="cuboid area 2wl 2lh and 2hw" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="center">Which can be shortened to: </p>
<p align="center"><span class="largest">A = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw</span></p>
<div style="clear:both"></div>
<div class="example">
<h3>Example: Find the surface area of this cuboid</h3>
<p class="center"><img src="images/cuboid-example.svg" alt="cuboid 10x4x5" />
</p>
<table border="0" align="center">

</div>
<a id="Volume"></a>
<h2>Volume</h2>
<p>The <a href="../cuboid.html">volume of a cuboid</a> is found using the formula:</p>
<p align="center"> <span class="larger">Volume&nbsp;=&nbsp;Length&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;Width&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;</span> <span class="larger">Height</span></p>
<p>Which<span class="center"> can be </span> shortened to: </p>
<p align="center" class="largest">V =&nbsp;l&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;w&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;h</p>
<p align="left">Or more simply:</p>
<p align="center" class="largest">V = lwh</p>
<div class="example">
<h3>Example: Find the volume of this cuboid</h3>
<table border="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td><img src="images/cuboid-example.svg" alt="cuboid 10x5x4" /></td>
