Domain - Geometric Measurement and Dimension

Cluster - Explain volume formulas and use them to solve problems.

[PC.G-GMD.A.2] - (+) Give an informal argument using Cavalieri’s principle for the formulas for the volume of a sphere and other solid figures.

Resources:


  • Cavalieri's Principle
    A method, with formula given below, of finding the volume of any solid for which cross-sections by parallel planes have equal areas. This includes, but is not limited to, cylinders and prisms. Formula: Volume = Bh, where B is the area of a cross-section and h is the height of the solid.

Predecessor Standards:

  • 8.G.C.9
    Know the formulas for the volumes of cones, cylinders, and spheres and use them to solve real-world and mathematical problems.
