Geometry Volume of Prisms and Cylinders
2
9/11/2015 Goals Find the volume of prisms. Find the volume of cylinders. Solve problems using volume.
3
9/11/2015 Volume The number of cubic units contained in a solid. Measured in cubic units. Basic Formula: V = Bh B = area of the base, h = height
4
9/11/2015 Cubic Unit 1 1 1 V = 1 cu. unit s s s V = s 3
5
9/11/2015 Cavalieri’s Principle

9/11/2015 B B B h h h Prism: V = Bh
7
9/11/2015 Cylinder: V = r 2 h B h r h V = Bh
8
9/11/2015 Example 1Find the volume. 10 8 3 Triangular Prism V = Bh Base = 40 V = 40(3) = 120 A base = ½ (10)(8) = 40
9
9/11/2015 Example 2Find the volume. 12 10 V = Bh The base is a ? Hexagon

9/11/2015 Example 2 Solution 12 10 12 ? ? ? 6
11
9/11/2015 Example 2 Solution 12 10 374.1 V = Bh V = (374.1)(10) V 3741
12
9/11/2015 Example 3 A soda can measures 4.5 inches high and the diameter is 2.5 inches. Find the approximate volume. V = r 2 h V = (1.25 2 )(4.5) V 22 in 3 (The diameter is 2.5 in. The radius is 2.5 ÷ 2 inches.)
13
9/11/2015 Example 4 A wedding cake has three layers. The top cake has a diameter of 8 inches, and is 3 inches deep. The middle cake is 12 inches in diameter, and is 4 inches deep. The bottom cake is 14 inches in diameter and is 6 inches deep. Find the volume of the entire cake, ignoring the icing.
14
9/11/2015 Example 4 Solution 8 12 14 3 4 6 r = 4 r = 6 r = 7 V Top = (4 2 )(3) = 48 150.8 in 3 V Mid = (6 2 )(4) = 144 452.4 in 3 V Bot = (7 2 )(6) = 294 923.6 in 3 486 1526.8 in 3

Example 5 A manufacturer of concrete sewer pipe makes a pipe segment that has an outside diameter (o.d.) of 48 inches, an inside diameter (i.d.) of 44 inches, and a length of 52 inches. Determine the volume of concrete needed to make one pipe segment. 44 48 52
17
9/11/2015 Example 5 Solution Strategy: Find the area of the ring at the top, which is the area of the base, B, and multiply by the height. View of the Base
18
9/11/2015 Example 5 Solution Strategy: Find the area of the ring at the top, which is the area of the base, B, and multiply by the height. Area of Outer Circle: A out = (24 2 ) = 576 Area of Inner Circle: A in = (22 2 ) = 484 Area of Base (Ring): A Base = 576 - 484 = 92 44 48 52
19
9/11/2015 Example 5 Solution V = Bh A Base = B = 92 V = (92 )(52) V = 4784 V 15,029.4 in 3 44 48 52
20
9/11/2015 Example 5 Alternate Solution V outer = (24 2 )(52) V outer = 94,096.98 V inner = (22 2 )(52) V inner = 79,067.60 V = V outer – V inner V 15,029.4 in 3 44 48 52
21
9/11/2015 Example 6 A metal bar has a volume of 2400 cm 3. The sides of the base measure 4 cm by 5 cm. Determine the length of the bar. 4 5 L
22
9/11/2015 Example 6 Solution Method 1 V = Bh B = 4 5 = 20 2400 = 20h h = 120 cm Method 2 V = L W H 2400 = L 4 5 2400 = 20L L = 120 cm 4 5 L
23
9/11/2015 Example 7 3 in V = 115 in 3 A 3-inch tall can has a volume of 115 cubic inches. Find the diameter of the can. Diameter = 7
24
9/11/2015 Summary The volumes of prisms and cylinders are essentially the same: V = Bh &V = r 2 h where B is the area of the base, h is the height of the prism or cylinder. Use what you already know about area of polygons and circles for B.
25
9/11/2015 V = Bh V = r 2 h B h h r Add these to your formula sheet.

9/11/2015 Which Holds More? 3.2 in1.6 in 4 in4.5 in 2.3 in This one!
27
9/11/2015 What would the height of cylinder 2 have to be to have the same volume as cylinder 1? r = 4 h r = 3 8 #1 #2
28
9/11/2015 Solution r = 4 8 #1
29
9/11/2015 Solution h r = 3 #2
