3/26 Applied Geometry - Volume of Cones, Pyramids and Spheres



We are still focusing on volume for today's lesson. We will be focusing on three types of figures, cones, pyramids and spheres. The video above shows how the formula for determining volume of a cone comes about. The video below shows how to derive the formula for the volume of a sphere.



To see some video examples of solving problems on the worksheet, click here (for cones and pyramids) and here (for spheres). We will also be taking a short quiz over surface area and volume on Wednesday as well. Students will be doing review sheets to prepare.

Homework:
10-7 & 10-8 worksheets and Review Sheet
