» Oblique Prism Formulas

An oblique prism is a prism whose lateral edges are not perpendicular to the base.

Height is the perpendicular distance between the two base planes.

Lateral surface area

$$S_{l}=P\times s$$


where,

Slβ€” lateral surface area;
Pβ€” perimeter of the base;
sβ€” slant height of a lateral face.

Total surface area

$$S_{t}=S_{l}+2S_{b}$$


where,

Stβ€” total surface area;
Slβ€” lateral surface area;
Sbβ€” base area.

Volume

$$V=S_{b}\times H$$


where,

Vβ€” volume;
Sbβ€” base area;
Hβ€” prism height.
