Volumes Of Solids. 14cm 5 cm 7cm 4cm 6cm 10cm 3cm 4cm
2
What Is Volume ? The volume of a solid is the amount of space inside the solid. Consider the cylinder below: If we were to fill the cylinder with water the volume would be the amount of water the cylinder could hold:
3
Measuring Volume. Volume is measured in cubic units. Example: Written as 14 units 3 or 14 cu.units Here is a cubic centimeter It is a cube which measures 1cm in all directions. Length Width Height 1cm We will now see how to calculate the volume of various shapes.
4
Volumes Of Cuboids. Look at the cuboid below: 10cm 3cm 4cm We must first calculate the area of the base of the cuboid: The base is a rectangle measuring 10cm by 3cm: 3cm 10cm
5
3cm 4cm 3cm 10cm Area of a rectangle = length x width Area = 10 x 3 Area = 30cm 2 We now know we can place 30 centimetre squares on the base of the cuboid. But we can also place 30 cubic centimetres on the base:
6
10cm 3cm 4cm We have now got to find how many layers of 1cm cubes we can place in the cuboid: We can fit in 4 layers. Volume = 30 x 4 Volume = 120 cm 3 That means that we can place 120 of our cubes measuring a centimetre in all directions inside our cuboid.
7
10cm 3cm 4cm Volume = 10 x 3 x 4 = 120 cm 3 This gives us our formula for the volume of a rectangular prism: Volume = ( length x width) x height V=Bh Base
8
What Goes In The Box ? Calculate the volume of the cuboids : (1) 14cm 5 cm 7cm 490cm 3 V = Bh V = ( 14 * 5) 7 V = (70) 7
9
What Goes In The Box ? Calculate the volume of the cuboids: (2) 3.4cm 39.3 cm 3 V = Bh V = (3.4 * 3.4) 3.4 V = (11.56) 3.4
10
What Goes In The Box ? Calculate the volumes of the cuboids below: (3) 8.9 m 2.7 m 3.2 m V = Bh V = (8.9 * 2.7) * 3.2 V = (24.03 ) 3.2 76.9 m 3
11
Volume of a Triangular Prism: What shape is it similar to? ___________ Rectangular Prism How does it compare to a rectangular prism? It is half a rectangular prism The base of the figure is made of_____________. Right triangle The formula for the area triangle is:___________ ½bh So, if the volume of a rectangular prism is ________ Bh What would we do to find half its volume: ____________ ½ the volume of rectangular prism
12
Find the volume of the prism. Using a Formula to Find the Volume of a Prism V = BhUse the formula. The base is a triangle. V = 6 · 6Substitute for B and h. V = 36 Multiply. The volume of the prism is 36 cm 3. · 3 · 4 = 1212 6
13
The Volume Of A Triangular Prism. Volume = Base x Height What shape is the base of the figure? Triangle. Calculate the area of the triangle: 5cm 8cm 5cm A = ½ x base x height A = 0.5 x 5 x 5 A = 12.5cm 2 The formula for the volume of a triangular prism is : V = ½ b h l B= base h = height l = length V = 12.5 (8) V = 100 cm 2
14
Find the volume of the prism. Example 2B 5 in 1.5 in. 4 in. V = Bh Use the formula. The base is a triangle. V = 3.75 · 4 B and h. V = 15 Multiply. The volume of the prism is 15 in 3. · 1.5 · 5 = 1212 3.75
15
The Volume Of A Cylinder. Consider the cylinder below: 4cm 6cm It has a height of 6cm. What is the size of the radius ? 2cm Volume = Base x height What shape is the base? Circle Calculate the area of the circle: A = r 2 A = 3.14 x 2 x 2 A = 12.56 cm 2 Calculate the volume: V = r 2 x h V = 12.56 x 6 V = 75.36 cm 3 The formula for the volume of a cylinder is: V = r 2 h r = radius h = height.
16
What shape is the base?_____________ Circle Write the formula you would use to determine the area of the circle. ____________ A= πr 2 What other information do you need? ____________ Height of the cylinder d = 3.6 mm h = 7 mm V =πr 2 h To it altogether and what is your formula? ____________ The Volume Of A Cylinder.
17
What’s the formula?___________ V = πr 2 h V =π(5) 2 (8.3) V = π(25)(8.3) V = π(207.5) V =651.55 cm 3
18
What’s the formula?___________ V = πr 2 h V = π(2.4) 2 ( 9) V =π (5.76)(9) V = π(51.84) V =162.7777 V = 162.8 m 3
19
For storage Mrs. Lin uses cylindrical containers like the one shown below. If Mrs. Lin uses 2 of these containers, which is closest to the total volume of both containers? The Volume Of A Cylinder. F 50 cubic feet G 25.12 cubic feet H 50.24 cubic feet J 200.96 cubic feet 4 ft 2 ft
25
