1. Volume of Figures With 2 Bases Lesson 8.3A Standards: M.3.G.2 Apply, using appropriate units, appropriate formulas (area, perimeter, surface area, volume) to solve application problems involving polygons, prisms, pyramids, cones, cylinders, spheres as well as composite figures, expressing solutions in both exact and approximate forms

2. Definition Volume: The number of cubic units needed to fill a space Or… The amount of space inside of a 3-D figure Volume is always measured in cubic units

3. Volume of a Prism Volume = B h B = area of the base h = height of prism

4. Example 1 Find the volume of the rectangular prism. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. 2 feet 4 feet 7 feet

5. Another Example Find the volume of the triangular prism. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. 18 cm 24 cm 7 cm

6. Now You Try… Find the volume of the regular triangular prism. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. 7 inches 15 inches

7. Volume of a Cylinder Volume = π r 2 h r = radius of the base h = height of the cylinder

8. Example Find the volume of the cylinder. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. 6 cm 18 cm

9. Now You Try… Find the volume of the cylinder. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. 8 cm 20cm

10. Word Problems – Example 1 To resurface the football field, the field was dug out 6 inches deep. If dirt costs $15 per cubic yard, how much will it cost to fill the field? A football field is 65 yards wide and 120 yards long.

11. Word Problems – Example 1 To resurface the football field, the field was dug out 6 inches deep. If dirt costs $15 per cubic yard, how much will it cost to fill the field? A football field is 65 yards wide and 120 yards long. 1.What kind of mathematical measurement do we need to find? Volume 2.Once we find volume what should we do? Multiply it by the cost of dirt. 3. Draw a diagram of the field to help you visualize your problem.
