How do I find

the volume of
cones,
cylinders, and
spheres?

Cone
Cone:has 1 circular base
and a lateral surface
Formula for volume of
a cone:

V= 1/3Bh
b: base
h: height

Lets Practice
V= 1/3Bh

Lets Practice
V= 1/3Bh

Lets Practice
V= 1/3Bh

Cylinder
Cylinder: has 2 parallel
congruent circular bases
connected by a lateral
surface
Formula for volume of
a cylinder:

V=(area of the base) x

(height)

Lets practice
V=(area of the base) x (height)
5 ft.

20 ft.

Lets practice
V=(area of the base) x (height)
24ft.

100 ft.

Lets practice
V=(area of the base) x (height)
8 ft.
20 ft.

Sphere
Sphere: has only 1
surface, which is curved,
and has no base
Formula for volume of
a sphere:
