Title: Geometry Volume of Prisms and Cylinders
1Geometry Volume of Prisms and Cylinders
2Warm Up
1) Marcy, Rachel, and Tina went bowling. Marcy
bowled 100 less than twice Rachels score. Tina
bowled 40 more than Rachels score. Rachel bowled
a higher score than Marcy. What is the greatest
score that Tina could have bowled? 2) Max can
type 40 words per minute. He estimates that his
term paper contains about 5000 words, and he
takes a 15-minute break for every 45 minutes of
typing. About how much time will it take Max to
type his term paper?
3 Volume of Prisms and Cylinders
The volume of a three-dimensional figure is the
number of nonoverlapping unit cubes of a given
size that will exactly fill the interior.

4Cavalieri's principle says that if two
three-dimensional figure have the same height and
have the same cross-sectional area at every
level, they have the same volume.

The aquarium holds about 429,851 gallons. The
water in the aquarium weight about 3,580,659
pounds
16Now you try!
2) Estimate the volume in gallons and the
weight of the water in the aquarium below if the
height were doubled.
17Cavalieris principle also relates to cylinders.
The two stacks have the same number of CDs, so
they have the same volume.

20Step1
Use the base area to find the radius.
Use the radius to find the height. The height is
equal to twice the radius.
Step2
Use the radius and height to find the volume.
Step3
21Now you try!
22Exploring Effects of Changing Dimensions
The radius and height of the cylinder are
multiplied by ½. Describe the effect on the
volume.
23Now you try!
4) The length, width, and height of the prism
are doubled. Describe the effect on the
volume.
