What is a cylinder? Find a definition, example images, and formulas for determining the volume and surface area of a cylinder if given the radius of the base and the height.

Using the painting, Cakes by artist Wayne Thiebaud, students will learn and practice math concepts of volume and surface area. Then they will create a bold cake painting, either online or with classroom art materials.

Use this interactive tool to explore prisms. Change the height and the shape of the base to see how these affect the prism. There are also several additional options, e.g., making it oblique or transparent. Properties of a prism are...

Use this applet to determine the volume of a box by filling it with cubes, rows of cubes, or layers of cubes. Determine the surface area as well by using the box's net.
