Warm Up
1) Marcy, Rachel, and Tina went bowling. Marcy bowled 100
less than twice Rachel’s score. Tina bowled 40 more than
Rachel’s score. Rachel bowled a higher score than Marcy.
What is the greatest score that Tina could have bowled?
2) Max can type 40 words per minute. He estimates that his
term paper contains about 5000 words, and he takes a 15minute break for every 45 minutes of typing. About how much
time will it take Max to type his term paper?

Volume of Prisms and Cylinders
The volume of a three-dimensional figure is the number of
nonoverlapping unit cubes of a given size that will exactly fill
the interior.
A cube built out of 27
unit cubes has a
volume of 27 cubic
units.

Cavalieri's principle says that if two three-dimensional
figure have the same height and have the same crosssectional area at every level, they have the same volume.

oblique prism with the
same base and height
have the same volume

The volume of the prism is
V = Bh = 24(9) = 216 m3.
The cylinder's diameter equals
the hypotenuse of the prism's
base, 10 m. So the radius is 5 m.
The volume of the cylinder
is V =  r2h =  (5)2(5) = 125 m3.
The total volume of the figure is
