Volume of Spheres, Pyramids and Cones

Cones and Pyramids

1/3 Bh

** Remember that the B is capitalized. That means that you have to find the area of the base shape.
- For a cone, find the area of the circle.
- For a pyramid, find the area of the parallelogram

Spheres
4/3 x pi x radius cubed (that's to the 3rd power)



WOW ... check out this online calculator that you can use to check your work for spheres!
