Introductory Message
This Self – Learning Module (SLM) is prepared so that you, our dear learners, can continue
your studies and learn while at home. Activities, questions, directions, exercises, and
discussions are carefully stated for you to understand each lesson.
Each SLM is composed of different parts. Each part shall guide you step-by-step as you
discover and understand the lesson prepared for you.
Pre-tests are provided to measure your prior knowledge of lessons in each SLM. This will tell
you if you can proceed on completing this module or if you need to ask your facilitator or your
teacher's assistance for a better understanding of the lesson. At the end of each module, you
need to answer the post-test to self-check your learning. Answer keys are provided for each
activity and test. We trust that you will be honest in using these.
In addition to the material in the main text, notes to the Teacher are also provided to our
facilitators and parents for strategies and reminders on how they can best help you with your
home-based learning.
Please use this module with care. Do not put unnecessary marks on any part of this SLM. Use
a separate sheet of paper in answering the exercises and tests. Read the instructions carefully
before performing each task.
If you have any questions using this SLM or any difficulty in answering the tasks in this module,
do not hesitate to consult your teacher or facilitator.
Thank you.

What I Need to Know

After successfully doing this module's activities, you are expected to determine
the relationship of the volume between a rectangular prism and a pyramid, a cylinder,
a cone, and a cylinder and sphere. (M6ME-IVa-95)

The activities provided in this module will help you master your skills in
calculating volumes of given solid figures. It will further help you understand better the
importance of determining the relationships between each solid figure.

So, it is essential to pay full attention to this module and exert the best effort to
comply with every task.

Believe that learning can continue amidst the health crisis. Good luck, stay safe,
and God bless.

 What's New

Solid Figures
Author Unknown

Solid figures are fat, not flat.

A cone is like a party hat.
A sphere is like a bouncy ball.
A prism is like a tall building.
A cylinder is like a can; you pop.
A cube is like a dice you drop.
Solid figures are here and there.
Solid figures are everywhere.

What is It

VOLUME

Volume is the amount of space enclosed by a solid. It must always be

expressed in cubic units.

UNDERSTANDING VOLUME OF PRISM AND PYRAMID

RECTANGULAR PRISM RECTANGULAR PYRAMID

A prism has two bases, while a pyramid has only one base. It's pretty obvious
that having the same base and height, a pyramid will have less volume than a prism.
How much less?

4
 When they have the same measurements of bases and height, it needs three
times the pyramid's content to fill the space inside the prism. Therefore, the pyramid's
volume is one third the volume of a prism with the same height and base area.

𝟏
𝑽𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑠𝑚 = 𝑩 𝒙 𝒉 or 𝑽 = 𝒍 𝒙 𝒘 𝒙 𝒉 𝑽𝑝𝑦𝑟𝑎𝑚𝑖𝑑 = 𝑩 𝒙 𝒉
𝟑

EXAMPLE 1:

A rectangular prism has a base length of 4 cm, a base width of 3 cm, and a height
of 5 cm. Compare the volume of this prism to a pyramid with the same
measurements.

1
SOLUTION: V (prism) = l x w x h V (pyramid) = 3 x B x h
V = 4cm x 3cm x 5cm B = 4cm x 3cm= 12cm²
V =12cm² x 5cm h = 5cm
1
V =60cm³ V = 3 x 12cm² x 5cm
1
V = 3 x 60cm³ = 20cm³

ANSWER:
The volume of a pyramid 20cm³ is one third the volume of a prism, 60cm³.

UNDERSTANDING VOLUME OF CYLINDER AND CONE

CYLINDER CONE

1
Just like prisms and pyramids, the volume of a cone is only 3 of the volume of
a cylinder with the same dimensions. It takes 3 cones to fill a pyramid.

𝟏
Formula: Vcylinder = πr²h Vcone = 𝟑πr²h

5
EXAMPLE 2:

A metal cone with a radius of 7 meters and a height of 4 meters is used to fill a
cylindrical glass of the same dimensions with oil. How many of the cone's capacity
will fill the cylinder full?

1
SOLUTION: V (cylinder) = πr²h V (cone) = 3 πr²h
1
V = (3.14) (7m) ² (4m) V = 3 x 3.14 x 7m² x 4m
1
V = (3.14) (49m²) (4m) V= 3 x 3.14 x 49m² x 4m
1
V = (3.14) (196m³) V = 3 x 615.44 m³
V = 615.44 cm³ V = 205.14 m³

V= 615.44 cm³ ÷ 205.14 m³

ANSWER: 3 times

Understanding Volume of Cylinder and Sphere

r
𝟒
Formula: Vsphere = πr³ Vcylinder = πr²h
𝟑

A cylinder will fit exactly around the sphere if they have the same radius. In that
case, the height of the cylinder is the diameter of the sphere, and the volume of the
2
sphere will be of the cylinder's volume.
3

EXAMPLE 3:

A globe and a cylindrical shaped jar, each have a radius of 15cm. Compare their
volume if the jar fits exactly around the globe.

𝟒
SOLUTION: V (sphere) = 𝟑 πr³ V (cylinder) = πr²h
𝟒
V = 𝟑 x 3.14 x (15cm) ³ V = 3.14 x 15cm² x 30cm
𝟒
V = 𝟑 x 10, 597.50 V = 3.14 x 6, 750 cm³
V =14 130 cm³ V = 21 195 cm³

6
 𝟐
x 21 195 = 14 130
𝟑
2
ANSWER: The volume of the globe is 3 of the volume of the cylindrical jar.
