In this unit, solids and their volumes will be investigated. The volume of a solid is the amount the solid contains. Volume is a measure of capacity and is measured in cubic units. Formulas for each solid will be derived and used to calculate the volume. In addition, a close look will be given to the relationship that exists between the volume of a cylinder and a cone with the same measurements, along with the volume of a prism and a cylinder with the same measurements.
You may use a calculator to help with the computations, but work with the calculator carefully and double check all calculations.
