This geometry volume formulas worksheet gives 23 problems on area and volume formulas, ordered from easy to hard, with a separate answer key.
These worksheets practice standards G-GMD.A.1 and G-GMD.A.3: circumference and area of a circle, the dissection and Cavalieri arguments behind the formulas, and volumes of cylinders, pyramids, cones and spheres.
The 23 problems move from circles to solids, then to word problems with tanks, candles and ice cream. Leave answers in terms of \(\pi\) or round as directed.
