What is the relationship between a hemisphere, a cone, and a cylinder? Using Cavalieri's Principle, the class determines that the sum of the volume of a hemisphere and a cone with the same radius and height equals the volume of a...

In a two-part worksheet, young geometers examine 3-D shapes and describe their attributes in a table. They will be able to draw the shape and name the number of vertices, faces, and edges. In the second part, individuals explore...

In this volume of solids activity, tenth graders solve and complete 20 various types of problems. First, they write the formula needed to find the volume of each solid. Then, pupils use the Pythagorean theorem to find the measure of the...

Class members learn how to apply formulas for spheres and cones with a video that begins with a review of the formulas for surface area and volume of spheres and cones. Pupils use these formulas to solve problems on a worksheet.

In this divergence and surface integrals instructional activity, students explore given vector fields and calculate the divergence and surface integrals of given functions. This one-page instructional activity contains 5 multi-step...

In this volume learning exercise, 10th graders solve 10 different word problems that include determining the volume in each one. First, they determine the ratio of their radius given the cubic meters of a sphere. Then, students determine...

Which item is shaped like a cone? Give students a chance to compare shapes, determining which item represents the prompted shape or figure (and which don't). Through 4 multiple-choice questions, scholars identify a cone, a cube, a...

In this geometry skills activity, students examine 6 geometric figures and identify them as spheres, cylinders, cones, or cubes.

In this geometry skills worksheet, students examine 6 geometric figures and identify them as spheres, cylinders, cones, or cubes.

In this identifying shapes worksheet, students tell which shapes in sets are named, choosing from cube, triangle, cone or sphere. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this vectors worksheet, learners solve and complete 6 various types of problems. First, they find an equation of a sphere with a given center point and endpoint of a radius at the point. Then, students find the scalar and vector...

In this vectors instructional activity, students solve and complete 6 various types of problems. First, they find two unit vectors that are parallel to the given vector and illustrate. Then, students find parametric equations for the...

For this squares worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 7 various types of problems. First, they divide a product of one with a square of the other. Then, students find the dimensions of a rectangle that will maximize the area. In...

In this cylinder, spheres, and prisms worksheet, students identify given shapes as one of the above. A reference web site is given for additional activities. 

Second graders engage in a lesson that is about the discovery of solids. They identify using shapes like cones, spheres, cylinders, and cubes in various different situations. Students explore the classroom in order to find examples of...

[Accessible by TX Educators. Free Registration/Login Required] The student will use models to develop formulas and connect them to the volume of prisms, spheres, cylinders, pyramids, and cones.
