Describe the cross-sections of prisms and cylinders and make conjectures about volume from the cross-sections.
The core standards covered in this lesson
G.GMD.A.3 — Use volume formulas for cylinders, pyramids, cones, and spheres to solve problems.
G.GMD.B.4 — Identify the shapes of two-dimensional cross-sections of three-dimensional objects, and identify three-dimensional objects generated by rotations of two-dimensional objects.
The foundational standards covered in this lesson
7.G.A.3 — Describe the two-dimensional figures that result from slicing three-dimensional figures, as in plane sections of right rectangular prisms and right rectangular pyramids.
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.
The essential concepts students need to demonstrate or understand to achieve the lesson objective
Suggestions for teachers to help them teach this lesson
It is important to define a cross-section as the intersection of a plane with the solid that is parallel to the base, and a slice as an intersection of any plane with the solid.Â
