LESSON ON VOLUME OF SOLIDS

Often, students work with shapes and solids under Geometry. Geometry deals with the study of solids and shapes and the measurements associated with them. Therefore various calculations with respect to the size, shape and volume is often done under Geometry. One of such computations is calculating volume of solids.
There are various types of solids. They are:

· Cube

· Cuboid

· Prism

· Pyramid

· Cylinder

· Sphere

· Cone

Students can use various volume formulas to calculate the volume of the various solids. The Volume is basically the 3 dimensional 'space' occupied by a particular solid.

Students can solve problems on finding volume and learn how to find volume of various solids. Ample problems are available online for students to practice upon. They can also get Geometry tutoring online to get help with solving problems in geometry.
