Identify cross-sections of pyramids and use the relationships between the cross-sections to determine the volume of truncated cones and pyramids.
The core standards covered in this lesson
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.
G.GMD.A.3 — Use volume formulas for cylinders, pyramids, cones, and spheres to solve problems.
The foundational standards covered in this lesson
G.CO.C.10 — Prove theorems about triangles. Theorems include: measures of interior angles of a triangle sum to 180°; base angles of isosceles triangles are congruent; the segment joining midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half the length; the medians of a triangle meet at a point.
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.
