Lesson 4 Student

This document provides a lesson on calculating the volumes of prisms and cylinders. It begins with defining key vocabulary terms like volume. It then explains the formula for finding the volume of a prism is length × width × height. Similarly, the formula for the volume of a cylinder is πr2h. The lesson includes examples of calculating volumes of various prisms and cylinders. It concludes with a lesson check to assess understanding of calculating volumes of 3D objects.

Vocabulary
volume

Vocabulary
The volume of a

three-dimensional
figure is the number of
nonoverlapping cube
units of a given size
that will exactly fill the
interior.

Cavalieris principle

says that if two 3D


figures have the same
height and the same
cross-sectional area at
every level, then they
have the same volume.
A right prism and an oblique
prism with the same base
and height have the same
volume
