Part II.  Look at  6 shapes and determine the volume by using the real dimensions of each shape (remember use the inner dimensions) 
 
Shape Formula Calculation
Sphere
r =
4/3 π  r 3

r
  = radius of sphere

Large cube
s =

s3 

s = side

Large Cylinder
r =
h =

π r2 h

r
  = radius of circular face,
h = distance between faces (height)

Cone
r =
h =

1/3 B r2 h

r  = radius of circular face
h = height

Square Pyramid
l =
w =
h =

1/3 (l w h)

l  = length
w = width
h = height

Large triangular prism

l =
w =
h =
1/2 (l w h)

l  = length
w = width
h = height
