what is the formula to find the volume of a square prism in which the sides of the edges are given?

The formula is A x h.
(Area of base times height)
E.g. Base = 6cm
Height = 5cm
6 x 5 = 30cm cubed.

Because it a square prism, you know that each of the sides are of the same length. I assume a square prism is a cube?
So, the volume of a cube= base x height
= (side x side) x side
= side cubed
If your asking for the volume of a rectangular prism...
the volume of a rectangular prism= base x height
= length x width x height
I hope this helps :)

Volume=a^2 * h
=base area * height
a=side of square
h=height of prism

Height x Base Area = Volume
Simple =D
