How does the volume of a cone and cylinder compare if the height and radius is the same for both shapes?
The cylinder's volume is 3 times bigger than the cone's volume. OR the cone's volume is one third the volume of the cylinder.
Explain the difference between a 2D shape and a 3D shape.
A 2D shape has two dimensions (length and width) and a 3D shape has 3 dimensions. (length, width, height)
Explain the difference between volume and surface area of 3D shapes?
Volume= how much a figure can hold.
Surface area= how much area will cover the outside of the shape.
What does capital "P" stand for in the surface area formula for a prism?
Perimeter of the base
Why is there not a capital "B" in the formula for volume of a sphere?
There isn't a base to find the area of.
