Understanding Cavalieri's Principle and Volume Calculations

The video tutorial explains Cavalieri's Principle, which states that two 3D figures with the same height and cross-sectional area have the same volume, even if one is slanted. It covers volume calculation formulas for prisms and cubes, and provides examples using CDs and coins. The tutorial demonstrates how to calculate the volume of an oblique cylinder and solve for volume using given base area and height.

What does Cavalieri's Principle state about two figures with the same height and cross-sectional area?

• They have the same surface area.

• They have the same volume.

• They have different volumes.

• They have different surface areas.
