You will be able to find the volume of prisms, cylinders, pyramids, cones, and spheres
In this video, let's review the Warm-Up Exercise and introduce the Fox in Box activity. Go ahead and get out your mom's good fabric scissors. Duration: 6:44
As any competent Minecrafter will tell you, any block measures 1 meter by 1 meter by 1 meter. That forms the basis for all measurements in the game. Likewise, the cube forms the axiom upon which all other volume formulae are based. Using multiplication and rearrangement, we can get the volume of a prism and a cylinder. Duration: 3:48
In Exercise 2, a rectangle sits confidently in the coordinate plane anchored securely to the x- and y-axes. If we rotate that rectangle around one of those axes, we generate a cylinder. But what is the volume of the solid of revolution? Which axis will create the cylinder with the most volume? Duration: 6:35
Whereas the previous video demonstrated what in calculus we call the Disk Method, Exercise 3 illustrates the Washer Method. When your rectangle is not anchored to its axis of rotation, you get a solid of revolution that resembles a roll of toilet paper or paper towels, which is a useful way to replenish your dwindling supplies.
