LAC 28:CXLII.2929. Geometric Measurement and Dimension

A. Explain volume formulas and use them to solve problems. 1. Give an informal argument, e.g., dissection arguments, Cavalieri’s principle, or informal limit arguments, for the formulas of the circumference of a circle, area of a circle, and volume of a cylinder, pyramid, and cone. 2. Use volume formulas for cylinders, pyramids, cones, and spheres to solve problems.
