Determining The Relationship of The Volume of The Solid Figures Relationship of The Volume Between Rectangular Prism and Pyramid

1) The volume of a pyramid is exactly 1/3 the volume of a rectangular prism with the same base and height. 2) The volume of a cone is 1/3 the volume of a cylinder with the same base and height. 3) For example, it takes three pyramids of popcorn to fill a rectangular box, since they have the same base and height, and the pyramid volume is 1/3 the prism volume.

Determining the Relationship of the Volume of the Solid Figures

Relationship of the volume between rectangular prism and pyramid


- The volume of pyramid is exactly 1/3 of the volume of a prism with exactly the same bases and height

The volume of prism is the amount of space inside the prism. The volume of pyramid is the amount of space inside the pyramid.
Volume is measured in cubic units, which means it tells you how Volume measured in cubic units, which means it tells us how many
many cubes of a given size it takes to fill the prism. We can use cubes of a given size it takes to fill the pyramid.
the diagram on page 288 to show why the formula of any prism
works. It takes three pyramids of popcorn
to fill the rectangular box. The pyramid
and the rectangular prism have the same
base base and height.

) Example 2: Complete the statement.


height (h) Volume of the pyramid = _____ x volume of rectangular
Prism
For a rectangular prism, V= l x w x ______
To find the volume (V) of a prism, multiply the number of cubic lxwxh
units needed to cover the base (B) by the number of layers (h). So for pyramid, V= ____l x w or V =
So, for any prism, ?
Volume (V) = base area (B) x height (h) 1
The volume of a pyramid is the volume of a prism with
3
same base area (B) and height (h)

Volume of prism Volume of pyramid


The Volume (V) of a prism is the product of the base 1
The formula for the volume of a pyramid is the
area (B) and the height (h). 3
V=B∙h base area (B) times the height (h)
Example 1 Find Since
the volume of thethen
B=L∙W, refrigerator
V=l∙w∙h 1 1
Solution V= ∙ B ∙ h or V= (l∙w∙h)
The refrigerator at the right is a 3 3
Example 3: Find the volume of
Rectangular prism. the pyramid at the right.
Using the formula, V=l∙w∙h, we have: Solution:
V= l∙w∙h 1
= (3m) (2m) (6m) V= (l∙w∙h)
V= 36m 3

Thus, the volume of the

V= 41 333.3 m 3

Relationship of the volume between rectangular cylinder and cone


- The volume of a cone means the third part of the volume of a cylinder having the same base and same
height.
The volume of cylinder is the amount of space inside
the cylinder. Volume of Cylinders
Finding the volume of a cylinder is similar to finding the
The Volume (V) of a cylinder is the product of the
volume of any other prism.
circular base (B) and height (h)

V= π ∙ r 2 ∙ h
Example 4: Find the volume of coffee in this mug at the right.
Solution:
V= π ∙ r 2 ∙ h
=3.14 x 62 x 12
= 3.14 x 36 x 12
V = 1356.48 cm3
So, the volume of this mug is 1356. 48 cm3

Volume of Cone

At Five-Six convenience store, you can buy a Big Gulp


or a Little Gulp juice. The Big Gulp comes in a can, while the
Little Gulp is served in a cone.

How many bases does a cone have? What is the


shape of the base of the cone?
The Big Gulp containers have equal radii
(plural for radius) and equal heights.
So, it takes three Little Gulps to fill one Big Gulp.

Volume of Cones
