This stack of printable worksheets is a massive practice resource for children to become familiar with and upgrade their knowledge of calculating the volume of composite shapes. A composite or compound shape is obtained when two or more dissimilar 3D shapes come together. It is also formed when a shape is enclosed within another; for instance, an inverted hemisphere over an inverted cone, or a small sphere inside a cylinder, etc. The task is for students to find the volume of the shaded region by adding or subtracting the individual volumes.

These printable pdfs come in handy for 8th grade and high school students.

The objective of this collection of pdf worksheets on finding the volume of composite figures is to provide practice in determining the volume of compound solids made up of two or more 3D shapes like prisms, pyramids, spheres, hemispheres, cylinders, and cones. The step-by-step approach begins with counting unit cubes in solid blocks for grade 5, finding volume of L-blocks and moving to adding and subtracting volume of two or more shapes for high school students. Free worksheets are also included.

Volume of Shaded Region | Subtracting Solid Shapes

Direct students of 8th grade and high school to find the volume of the whole 3D shape encompassing the other shape(s) and subtract the volume of the basic figure(s) or unshaded parts from it to compute the volume of the shaded region.

How do you find the volume of a composite figure?

How to Find Volume of a Composite Figure? Measure the dimensions of the bottom solid figure and find the volume. Measure the dimensions of the top solid figure and find the volume. Find the volume of the composite figure by adding the volume of the two solid figures.

What is composite figure with example?

A composite shape can be defines as a shape created with two or more basic shapes. We often refer to composite shapes as compound and complex shapes as well. We see composite shapes every day. The shape of your curved bookcase, the mouse you are scrolling, and the bag you are carrying are all composite shapes.
