Targeting grades: 4-5
Prerequisite knowledge: Volume of cuboids, prisms and cylinders.
Learning Objective: Calculating the volume of compound shapes

Volume of Compound 3D shapes WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

This worksheet provides practice of finding the volume of compound shapes made from cuboids, prisms and cylinders.

Section A begins the worksheet with shapes made from cuboids, these volumes can be found in many ways and the shapes given will challenge learners to think about different methods.

Section B then provides some prisms and cylindrical-based shapes, with cross-sections made from triangles, trapeziums and semicircles.

All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Maths.
