What is the formula for the volume of a pyramid?

Back

The volume of a pyramid is given by the formula: V = (1/3) * base area * height.

Front

What is the formula for the volume of a cone?

Back

The volume of a cone is given by the formula: V = (1/3) * π * r² * h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height.

Front

How do you calculate the base area of a rectangular pyramid?

Back

The base area of a rectangular pyramid is calculated by multiplying the length and width of the base: Base Area = length * width.

Front

What is the value of π (Pi) used in volume calculations?

Back

The value of π (Pi) is approximately 3.14.

Front

If a cone has a radius of 3 cm and a height of 5 cm, what is its volume?

Back

V = (1/3) * π * (3 cm)² * (5 cm) = 15.7 cm³ (using π ≈ 3.14).

Front

What is the relationship between the height of a pyramid and its volume?

Back

The height of a pyramid is directly proportional to its volume; as height increases, volume increases if the base area remains constant.

Front

What units are used to measure volume?

Back

Volume is typically measured in cubic units, such as cubic centimeters (cm³), cubic meters (m³), or cubic feet (ft³).

Front

How does the volume of a cone compare to that of a cylinder with the same base and height?

Back

The volume of a cone is one-third the volume of a cylinder with the same base and height.

Front

What is the volume of a pyramid with a base area of 20 cm² and a height of 9 cm?

Back

V = (1/3) * 20 cm² * 9 cm = 60 cm³.

Front

What is the significance of the '1/3' in the volume formulas for pyramids and cones?

Back

The '1/3' in the volume formulas indicates that both pyramids and cones occupy one-third of the volume of a prism or cylinder with the same base area and height.
