ACT Math

Lesson Plan

Volume of prisms, cylinders, pyramids, cones, spheres

Goals / Objectives

Compute the volume of right prisms (rectangular, triangular, or any base whose area is given) and cylinders using V = Bh

Compute the volume of pyramids and cones using V = 1/3 Bh

Compute the volume of spheres using V = 4/3 pir^3

Identify which volume formula applies given a figure's name, description, or diagram

Find a missing radius or height from a given volume by solving the volume formula for it

Standards

G 405. Use geometric formulas when all necessary information is given G 601. Use relationships involving area, perimeter, and volume of geometric figures to compute another measure (e.g., surface area for a cube of a given volume and simple geometric probability) G 705. Solve multistep geometry problems that involve integrating concepts, planning, and/or visualization
