Objectives:
- Identify the three-dimensional objects: cone, cylinder, and sphere
- Calculate the volume of a cone, cylinder, and sphere
What is a three-dimensional object?
A three-dimensional object differs from two-dimensional objects because they are not flat. They can be measured in three directions: height, width, and depth.
