Vocabulary ●Altitude- height of the pyramid or cone from base to vertex ●Vertex- special kind of point that described the corners or intersections of geometry ●Radius- length of a line segment from its center to its perimeter ●30°-60°-90°- special right triangle ●45°-45°-90°- special right triangle
3
Formulas ● Pyramids: ⅓ Bh ● Cones: ⅓ πr²h
4
Square-base Pyramid Problems ● Square-based Pyramid Find the volume of the pyramid using the formula Substitute in the numbers for the formula (B=area of the base)
5
Square-base Pyramid Problems After plugging in all the numbers multiply them together After multiplying, divide by 3 and then get your final answer
6
Square-based Pyramid (Trig) ● Use trigonometry to find the volume of the square based pyramid Now you must use trig to find the volume of the square based pyramid When the square is split in half by the diagonal it creates a 45°-45°-90° triangle. Use this to solve for the area of the base
7
Square-based Pyramid (Trig) If the trigonometry (with the 45°- 45°-90° triangle) was used correctly, and the rest of the formula was substituted correctly then the final answer should have been 33.3 meters cubed.
8
Triangular-based Pyramid ● Triangular-based Pyramid Find the volume of the Triangular-based pyramid using the formula Remember that the base is now a triangle
9
Triangular-based Pyramid Start to substitute all the numbers but do not forget to divide by two for area of the triangular base Multiply all numbers together before dividing by 3
10
Triangular-based Pyramid Here is the final answer: If all the steps were done correctly, your final answer should have been 272 units cubed.
11
Triangular-based Pyramid (Trig) ● Use trigonometry to find the volume of the Triangular-based Pyramid Use the 30-60-90 special triangle values to solve this problem
12
Triangular-based Pyramid (Trig) Be sure to divide by two because of the triangular base and if everything is done right the final answer should be 41.569 units cubed.
13
Cones ● Use the formula to find the volume of the cone Find the area of the base using 3.14xr*2 and then multiply by the height. The final answer should be 91.4 units cubed.
14
Cones (Trig) ● Cones with trigonometry Use Tan=opposite/adjacent to solve this The final answer should be 1482.18 units cubed
15
Cones (Trig 2) Use the pythagorean theorem to determine the altitude of the cone and then substitute the numbers into the formula and find the volume.
