Reflection Question 1: What should your units on your base area calculations be, and why? How is this different from the units on your volume calculations? Explain in two to three sentences.

Base area is the product of length and width of the base of a given figure, and it has a unit of square meters (). While the volume is product of the length, width and height of a figure which has a unit of cubic meters ().

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit of the base area is square meters (), because its an area of the base of a figure. Since;

Area = length (m) × width (m)

        = m × m

        =

Thus, the unit of base area is square meter ().

Volume is a measure of the capacity of an object, or quantity of something that an object could contain.

volume = length (m) × width (m) ×height (m)

            =   m × m × m

            =

Base area is the product of length and width of the base of a given figure, and it has a unit of square meters (). While the volume is product of the length, width and height of a figure which has a unit of cubic meters ().
