Lesson Objective Students will use the formula for the volume of a prism and cylinder to solve problems.
Lesson Beginning Based on the exploratory activity, tell me three things that you learned about volume of cylinders.
Volume (V) is a measure of the amount of space that it occupies.
Volume of Prisms Volume of a prism is the product of the area of the base and the height of the prism. V = Bh
Volume of Cylinder Volume of a cylinder is the product of the area of the base and the height of the cylinder. V = Bh
