Connecting BIG ideas and Answering the Essential Questions

1 Visualization
You can determine the intersection of a solid and a plane by visualizing how the plane slices the solid to form a two-dimensional cross section.
Space Figures and Cross Sections (Lesson 11-1)
This vertical plane intersects the cylinder in a rectangular cross section.
A vertical plane intersects a vertical cylinder, along the diameter of the bases, to get a rectangular cross section.
Surface Areas and Volumes of Prisms, Cylinders, Pyramids, and Cones (Lessons 11-2 through 11-5)
 
2 Measurement
You can find the surface area or volume of a solid by first choosing a formula to use and then substituting the needed dimensions into the formula.
  Surface Area (S.A.) Volume (V)
Prism p h , plus 2 b Bh
Cylinder 2 pi r h , plus 2 b Bh
Pyramid 1 half . p l plus b 1 third b h
Cone pi r , l plus b 1 third b h
Surface Areas and Volumes of Spheres (Lesson 11-6)

3 Similarity
The surface areas of similar solids are proportional to the squares of their corresponding dimensions. The volumes are proportional to the cubes of their corresponding dimensions.
Areas and Volumes of Similar Solids (Lesson 11-7)
If the scale factor of two similar solids is a : b, then
  • the ratio of their areas is eh squared , colon , b squared
  • the ratio of their volumes is eh cubed , colon , b cubed
