Volume of Cones

High schoolers find the volume of pyramids and cones. For this volume of pyramids and cones lesson, learners explore the relationship between the volumes of prisms and pyramids. They investigate the relationship between pyramids and cones.

Go beyond the basic formulas and uncover the surface area and volume of 3-D shapes with this comprehensive and organized learning exercise packet. The problems include the basic formula computations while also challenging your learners...

In this comprehensive  worksheet, young geometers solve a number of surface area and volume problems. Problems range from basic formula-based calculations to more challenging geometric figures and word problems. 

Your learners will get a lot of practice finding volumes of pyramids and cones in this nicely written practice worksheet. It even has room for them to show their work. The first few pyramids and cones are labeled pictures, while the last...

Partners use materials to wrap three-dimensional objects to determine the formula for surface area. The groups use an orange to calculate the amount of peel it takes to completely cover the fruit. Using manipulatives, individuals then...

Help your classes form an appreciation for pyramids like the Egyptians! The instructional video explains the components of a pyramid and the formula for the volume of the pyramid. The example shows how to calculate the volume given...

Now it makes sense why pyramids and cones have one third the volume of prisms and cylinders. Pupils watch an educational video to learn about the formulas for the volume of pyramids and cones. They see several worked-out examples...

All you need are a few values to find the the volume of a cone! Watch an informative math video that guides learners through the formula needed, as well as the relationship between the cone's volume and the volume of other...

Discover another way to find the volume of a cone. Pupils explore how the area of a cross section changes as it moves through a cone. The interactive uses that knowledge to develop the integral to use to find the volume of the cone....

The height of a pyramid may change, but the usefulness of the interactive will not. Learners drag the apex of a pyramid to change its height. They then answer a set of challenge questions designed to investigate how changing the...
