Volume of Prisms and Cylinders WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
This worksheet is great as an introductory task for finding the volume of prisms and cylinders. Section A would be perfect as a review activity, as it requires learners to find the area of 2D shapes that would form the cross-section of a prism or cylinder. Section B then provides some 3D shapes beginning with cuboids and triangular prisms, before then including prisms with trapezoid cross-sections, and then ends with some cylinders.
