LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

Determines the Relationship of the Volume Between a Rectangular
Prism and a Pyramid; a Cylinder and a Cone;
and a Cylinder and Sphere

Background Information for Learners

This activity sheet serves as a self-learning guide for the learners. It brings you
lessons that will help you understand, discover and learn the concepts of Mathematics
specifically on determining the relationship of the volume between a rectangular prism
and a pyramid; a cylinder and a cone; and a cylinder and sphere which encompass not
only in every detail of our lives, but also in the real life situation from the simplest to the
most complex problem involving numbers

When we are questioned to find an amount that will occupy space and not just a
surface, we are being open to another application of measurement which the volume
is.
Volume (V) is the number of cubic units needed to occupy a given space of a
solid figures. The concepts of determining the measurements and formulas of volume
of various figures can be used in solving problems.
Cubic units is the unit used to measure volume.

Listed below are different figures with their corresponding formulas for volume.
Solid figures Formulas

Rectangular Prism • The volume (v) of prism is the product of the base
area (B) and the height (h) or the product of
length, width and height.
h
l
w V=Bxh or V=lxwxh

• Since B = l x w,

• Where: l = length, w = width, and h = height or

altitude

 Pyramid • The volume (v) of pyramid is the base area (B)
times the height (h).
h
V= xBxh or V= ( l x w h)

Cylinder • The volume (v) of a cylinder is the product of the
r circular base area (B) and the height (h)

h V= x xh

• Where: h = height, r = radius, and = 3.14

Cones • The volume (v) of a cone is the base area (B)
times the height (h).
h
r V= (B x h) or V= ( x x h)

π x r2 x h
V= Bxh V=

• The volume (v) of sphere with radius (r) is
times the cube of the radius.

r = x x or V = 4 x π x r

Sphere • Where: r = radius, and = 3.14

Recap:

• The volume of a pyramid is the volume of a prism with the same

base area (B) and height (h).

Example 1: Find the volume of the rectangular prism and pyramid with
the same base area and height of 3 and 25 cm respectively.

Volume of rectangular prism Volume of pyramid

V= B x h V= x B x h
=3 x 25 cm
= 75 = x (3 x 25 cm)
= x 75
= 25
Relationship:1/3 of the volume of a prism is the volume of pyramid.
of 75 is 25

 • The volume of cone is the volume of a cylinder with same base
area (B) and height (h).

Example 2: What is the volume of the cone and cylinder with same
radius and height of 3 cm and 4 cm respectively? Use 3.14 for .

Volume of cylinder Volume of cone

V= B x h V= (B x h)
= xh
= x xh = ( x x h)
= 3.14 x x 4 cm = (3.14 x x 4 cm)
=113.04 = 37.68

Relationship: 1/3 of the volume of a cylinder is the volume of cone.

of 113.04 is 37.68

• The volume of a sphere is of the volume of a cylinder with same

radius, and height equal to the diameter.
( =

Example 3: What is the volume of the sphere if the cylinder with same
radius and height equal to the diameter of the sphere has a volume of
75 ?

Since the volume of a sphere is Thus, is 50.

of the volume of a cylinder.
The volume of the sphere is
50
