13.2 Volume of Pyramids and Cones Vinh Lam and Zach Mann
2
Objectives Find volume of pyramids. Find volume of cones.
3
Things to Know For this lesson you will need to know how to use Trigonometry to solve for angles, as well as rules for 30-60-90 and 45-45-90 triangles.
4
Volume of Pyramids If a pyramid has a volume of V cubic units, a height of h units, and a base with an area of B square units, then... V = 1/3Bh
5
Example #1 Find the volume of a square pyramid if it has a slant height of 34 in., a base edge of 32 in., and a height of 30 in. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. V = 1/3Bh
6
Example 1 Solution V = 1/3(32²)(30)Plug in V = 1/3(30,720)Multiply V = 10,240 in.³Multiply by 1/3
7
Your Turn! Find the volume of a pentagonal pyramid with a base edge of 4 and a height of 10. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. 4
8
Example #2 Solution First, find the apothem of the pentagon to find the area of the base. The apothem is x. Tan36° = 2/xTrig. xTan36° = 2Multiply x = 2/Tan36°Divide x = 2.752763841Solve
9
Example # 2 Solution (Cont.) Since you now have the apothem, plug it in to find the area of the pentagon. (1/2Pa) B = ½(20)(2.752763841)Equation B = 27.52763841Solve Now plug the area of the base in to find the area of the pyramid. V = 1/3(27.52763841)(10)Equation V = 91.8Solve
10
Volume of Cones If a right circular cone has a volume of V cubic units, a height of h units, and the base has a radius of r units, then... V = 1/3πr²h
11
Example #1 Find the volume of a cone if it has a radius of 15 and a height of 22. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. V = 1/3πr²h 15 22
12
Example #1 Solution V = 1/3π(15²)(22)Plug in V = 1/3π(4,950)Multiply V = 1,650πMultiply V = 5,183.6Solve
13
Your Turn! Find the volume of a cone with a radius of 12. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. 12 45°
14
Example #2 Solution Using the rules of 45-45-90 triangles, you know the legs are equal, so the height is 12. V = 1/3π(12²)(12)Plug in V = 1/3π(1,728)Multiply V = 576πMultiply V = 1,809.6Solve
15
Volume of Oblique Cones The formula for the volume of an oblique cone is the same as that of a right cone, so… V = 1/3πr²h
16
Example #1 Find the volume of an oblique cone if it has a diameter of 30 feet and a height of 25 feet. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. V = 1/3πr²h
17
Example #1 Solution We know the diameter is 30, so the radius is 15 feet, so your equation should read.. V = 1/3π(15²)(25)Equation V = 1/3π(5,625)Multiply V = 1875πMultiply V = 5890.5Solve
18
Your Turn! Find the volume of an oblique cone with a height of 14 and a radius of 6. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. 14 6
19
Example #2 Solution V = 1/3πr²hEquation V = 1/3π(6²)(14)Plug in V = 1/3π(504)Multiply V = 168πMultiply V = 527.8Solve
