Unit 4: Measuring Prisms and Cylinders Math 8 Unit 4: Measuring Prisms and Cylinders
Unit 4: Measuring Prisms and Cylinders What you’ll learn Draw and construct nets of 3-D objects Determine the surface areas of prisms and cylinders Develop formulas for the volumes of prisms and cylinders Solve problems involving prisms and cylinders
Unit 4: Measuring Prisms and Cylinders Why its important: Used to design different objects (soup can, box, dog house, etc...) Used to determine the amount of material needed to make an object (surface area) Used to determine the volume of an object.
Unit 4: Measuring Prisms and Cylinders 4.1 Exploring Nets
4.1 Exploring Nets Focus: Identify, draw, and construct nets of objects
Net – a diagram that can be folded to make an object. Origami folding box.
Right prism – a 3-D shape that consists of two parallel regular polygons connected to form a 3-D shape.
