 Volume and Surface Area of Cylinders

4/7/2008 Math 2a
1. Review of Formulas for circles, triangles and rectangular prisms.
2. Change a dimension and its impact (worksheet)

OBJECTIVE: 1.1.4 Understand the concept of direct proportion. 1.2.1 Demonstrate understanding of the concepts of volume and surface area of rectangular prisms. 1.2.4 Use a systematic procedure to measure and describe the volume of rectangular prisms 1.2.5 Use formulas to determine measurements related to circles, triangles, and rectangular prisms. ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Students will calculate appropriate perimeter, area, circumference, surface area and volume THEN not what occurs when there is a change in ONE of the dimensions and how it affects the same measures. NOTES: A=pi x r^2; A = 1/2bh; A=lw; V=lwh HOMEWORK: 'Keep Building' A (Handout)
