Dale Copy of G.GGMD.3 Volume of Spheres
Volume of a Sphere
Notice that if you drag the slider, the volume of half a sphere (hemisphere) is equal to the volume of the cylinder minus the volume of the cone. So, half a sphere = r2h - r2 h. Therefore, half a sphere = r2h. If half a sphere = r2h, then an entire sphere equals r2 h. And, a sphere's radius and height are equal, so the formula can be cleaned up to r3
Example #1. The radius is 9 and they used 3.14 for pi.
Example #1. The radius is 9 and they used 3.14 for pi.
Example #2. The radius is 8 and they used 3.14 for pi.
Example #2. The radius is 8 and they used 3.14 for pi.
You try #1. Find the volume of the sphere using either 3.14 or 22/7 for pi.
You try #2. Find the volume of this sphere using either 3.14 or 22/7 for pi.
You try #3. Find the volume of this sphere using either 3.14 or 22/7 for pi.
