Aim : How do you find the surface area and volume of a sphere ?
Definition of a Sphere -
a sphere is the set of all points in space equidistant from a given point called the center .
Formula for the Surface Area of a Sphere :
SA= 4 pi r squared
Formula for the Volume of a Sphere :

Aim : How do we identify solids ?
Solid Geometry is the geometry of 3-dimensional space.
involves width , height and length.
Volume( think how much water can fit! )
Surface Area ( space around it )
Two Main Types .
Polyhedra - must have flat faces, polygons.
includes- prisms , platonics , pyramids etc .
Non Polyhedra - any surface with no flat surface
includes- spheres , cylinders , torus , cones .
