Lesson 11.5 Polyhedra and Spheres pp
2
Objectives: 1. To prove the formula for the volume of a sphere.
2. To find volumes using appropriate formulas.
3
In this section we will attempt to develop the formula for finding the volume of a sphere.
4
Postulate 11.5 Cavalieri’s Principle. For any two solids, if all planes parallel to a fixed plane form sections having equal area, then the solids have the same volume.
5
r t t 2r P r
6
Concentric circles are circles that have the same center but radii of different lengths. The region bounded by concentric circles is called the annulus.
7
r t
8
Aannulus = Alg circle - Asm circle
Aannulus = r2 - t2
9
Now consider a sphere with radius r and a secant plane passing through it at a distance of t units from the center. The secant intersects the sphere to form circle C with radius x.
10
A B C t x r
11
Since ABC is a right triangle, the Pythagorean theorem applies.
x r
12
Since ABC is a right triangle, the Pythagorean theorem applies.
t2 + x2 = r2 Solving for x2 x2 = r2 - t2 Since the area of this sector is a circle Asection = x2 Substituting for x2 Asection = r2 - t2 Asection = (r2 - t2)
13
x t t t r 2r r r r The volume of a sphere is equal to the volume of the solid between the cones and the cylinder.
14
Vsphere = Vcylinder - Vtwo cones
15
3 1 V = r2(2r) – r2 (r) ÷ ø ö ç è æ 3 2 V = 2r r3 3 2 6 V = r r3 3 4 V = r3
16
Theorem 11.7 The volume of a sphere is four-thirds times the cube of the radius: 3 4 V = r3
17
EXAMPLE Find the volume of a sphere with a diameter of 10 inches.
V = r3 4 3 V = (5)3 4 3 V ≈ cubic inches ≈ in.3
18
Practice: Find the volume of a sphere with a diameter of 6 inches.
V = r3 4 3 V = (3)3 4 3 V = 36 cubic inches ≈ in.3
