Curated OER
Surface Area and Volume
In this surface area and volume worksheet, 10th graders solve 10 different problems that includes various types of solids and cylinders. First, they determine the surface area for each figure given certain measurements. Then, students...
Curated OER
Supplemental Algebra Problems
In this volume worksheet, students compute the volume of geometric shapes. Each problem is an application (or word) problem. Students are given the appropriate formula and dimensions of the shape. Two problems ask about surface area.
Curated OER
Cylinder Net
In this math worksheet, students learn the shape of a cylinder by constructing a model using this net pattern. Students cut, fold and tape the pattern to make a 3D cylinder.
Curated OER
Circles And Cylinders
Middle schoolers investigate some of the mathematical concepts involved in the study of circles. They first practice finding the circumference of a circle by finding the diameter and performing the calculation. The instructional activity...
