Q4 math 6 w1 Determining the Relationship of Volume Between a Rectangular

The document explains the relationships of volume between various geometric shapes, including rectangular prisms, pyramids, cylinders, cones, and spheres. It provides formulas for calculating the volume of each shape and illustrates that the volume of a pyramid is one-third that of a prism with the same base area and height, and similarly for cones and cylinders. Additionally, it includes example problems for calculating the volumes of these shapes.

Determining the

Relationship of
Volume Between
a Rectangular
Prism and a
Pyramid; a
Cylinder, and a
Cone; a Cylinder
and Sphere
A. Relationship of the Volume between
Rectangular Prism and Pyramid
1. EXPLORING VOLUME OF A RECTANGULAR
PRISM.
Let us determine the volume
of the rectangular prism at
the right with the given
dimensions. To solve for the
volume of a given rectangular
prism, follow the formula and
perform the operations
V = l · w · h
V= 5 cm x 3 cm x 2 cm
3
𝑐𝑚
V = 30
Find the volume of the rectangular
prism shown below with the
illustrated dimensions:

l = 9 cm w= 4 cm and h = 6 cm.
Find the volume of the rectangular
prism shown below with the illustrated
dimensions:

l = 9 cm w= 4 cm and h = 6 cm.
Solution:
V=l∙w∙h
V = 9 cm x 4 cm x 6 c m
V = 216 cm3
2. Exploring the Volume of a Pyramid
Consider the following pyramid and the rectangular
prism having equal altitudes (height) and bases with
equal areas.
If the pyramid is filled with water or sand and
its content is poured into a rectangular prism,
only a third of the prism will be filled. Thus,
the volume of a pyramid is 1 3 the volume of a
prism.
To find the volume of the given pyramid whose
length measures 9 cm, width of 4 cm and height of 6
cm, study the solution below.
Volume of a Cylinder
Cylinders have circular bases. Finding
the volume of a cylinder is just like
finding the volume of a prism.

Volume = (𝜋 ∙ ) h
Volume = (area of the base) x height

Volume = 𝜋 ∙ ∙ h
Example: Find the volume of a cylinder with
radius of 2 cm and a height of 15 cm.

V = 𝜋 ∙ r2 ∙ h
V = 3.14 x (2 cm)2 x 15 cm
V = 3.14 x 4 cm2 x 15 cm
V = 188.4 cm3
Volume of a Cone
If a cone is filled with water or sand, and then its
content is poured into a cylinder with equal base
area and height, only a third of the cylinder will be
filled.
This shows that the volume of a cone is 1/3 of the
volume of a cylinder with the same base area and
height.
Let’s find the
volume of the given
cone whose height
measures 15 cm
and radius
measures 2 cm.
Volume of a Sphere
The volume of the cylinder would be

which is (𝜋)(2𝑟)𝑜𝑟 2𝜋.


the area of its base times its height,

Therefore, the volume of the sphere

V= 𝜋
is
or
Let’s find the volume of the sphere
whose radius measures 3 cm
Find the volume of the sphere
