Questions and Answers

How do you find the surface area of a cylinder, and what is the formula used?

The surface area of a cylinder is calculated using the formula $2\pi rh + 2\pi r^2$, where $r$ is the radius and $h$ is the height.

What is the volume formula for a pyramid and how is it derived?

The volume of a pyramid is given by the formula $V = \frac{1}{3} Bh$, where $B$ is the area of the base and $h$ is the height.

Describe how to calculate the volume of a sphere and state its formula.

The volume of a sphere is calculated using the formula $V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$, where $r$ is the radius of the sphere.

Study Notes

Geometry and Measurement

Surface Area: The total area of all the faces of a three-dimensional object.
Volume: The amount of space a three-dimensional object occupies.
Prisms: Three-dimensional figures with two congruent parallel bases and rectangular sides.
Cylinders: Three-dimensional figures with two congruent circular bases and a curved surface connecting the bases.
Pyramids: Three-dimensional figures with a polygonal base and triangular faces that meet at a point called the apex.
Cones: Three-dimensional figures with a circular base and a curved surface that comes to a point called the apex.
Spheres: Three-dimensional figures that are perfectly round, all points on the surface are equidistant from the center.
Formulas: Mathematical expressions that relate different quantities.
Solving problems: Using formulas to calculate surface area and volume for different three-dimensional shapes.
