This resource can be used for practice with calculating and comparing the
volume of cylinders, cones and spheres. Students will explore, discover and
discuss the relationship between all three shapes.

The same radius and height are used to determine the volume for a cylinder, cone
and sphere. After completing the calculations, comparisons can be made
between the volume of the shapes. Two discoveries may be made.

1) One comparison students may make is between the shapes. If the shapes
have the same height and radius, the cylinder will be three times the cone’s
volume. The sphere’s volume will be twice the cone’s volume.

2) Students might also compare how the volume changed when the radius and
height were doubled and tripled. For example, if the radius and height are
doubled, the volume will be 8 times as large. If the radius and height tripled,
the volume will be 27 times as large.

Practice with vocabulary is also important. Students will use a word bank to
identify the correct geometry vocabulary word for ten definitions. Students can
use a highlighter to find the vocabulary word in the word search. The ten words
include:

• Volume
• Cylinder
• Cone
• Sphere
• Height
• Base
• Formula
• Net
• Solid
• Face

Examine your answers for each problem. What conclusions can you make?
One comparison students may make is between the shapes. If the shapes have
the same height and radius, the cylinder will be three times the cone’s volume. The
sphere’s volume will be twice the cone’s volume. Another comparison might involve
the increase in the radius, height and volume. For example, if the radius and height
are doubled, the volume will be 8 times as large. If the radius and height tripled, the
volume will be 27 times as large.
