Compare and contrast pyramids and cones.

Be sure to use mathematical terms to describe parts of the solids.

a. In what ways are they alike?

b. In what ways are they different?

Choose either pyramids or cones, and explain how the formula for their volume can be described using other solids.

Answer 1

Answer:

Similarities: both have a base which extends into a single vertex.

Differences: a cone only has 1 edge and a pyramid has a minimum of 6 (for a triangular pyramid).

the base of a pyramid is a polygon - the base of a cone is a curve

(a mathematical cone has no edges at all it is a continuous sheet - or two sheets if you consider the vertex as dividing the surface into two sheets).

Answer 2

The key difference between Pyramids and cones are:
A pyramid is basically a code that has a base in the form of a polygon.

What are the similarities between Pyramids and Cones?

Pyramids and cones are alike in the following ways:

Their lateral surfaces converge at a vertex;If they are of the same size, then their volume will be the same as wellA pyramid will eventually turn into a cone if the number of sides of its base is increased infinitely.

Because a cone can be made from a right angle triangle, their formulas are also alike in some ways. Notice that both formulas are related to the height of the object.

The formula for the area of a right angle triangle is:

A =   hb/2

The area of a cone is given as:

A = $\pi$ r (r + $\sqrt{(h²+r²)}$
