If a 3D figure is scaled by a factor of 3, how does the volume change?

The volume becomes 27 times larger because volume scales by the cube of the scale factor.

A square pyramid has a base side length of 6 meters and a height of 10 meters. What is its volume?

Base area = 6×6=36 m2
Volume = 13×36×10 =120 m3

What solid is formed when a rectangle is rotated around one of its shorter sides?

A cylinder

300

What transformation preserves both angle measures and side lengths?

A rigid transformation (translation, rotation, or reflection)

A square pyramid and a square prism have the same base area of 36 in² and height of 12 in. What’s the difference in their volumes?

Prism: 36×12=432 in3
Pyramid: 1/3×36×12=144 in3
Difference: 432−144 = 288

A cone and a cylinder have the same radius and height. If the cylinder's volume is 150 cm³, what is the cone's volume?

V= 1/3 ×150=50 cm3

A rectangular pyramid has a volume of 120 m³ and a height of 10 m. What is the area of its base?

Use V = 13 × Base Area × Height
120 =13 × B × 10 ⇒ B=36 m2

Two similar triangles have a side length ratio of 3:5. The area of the smaller triangle is 27 cm². What is the area of the larger triangle?

Area ratio = 32:52=9:25
Let the larger area be x:
9/25=27/x  ⇒ 9x=675  ⇒  x=75 cm2
