Closed Captioned Video: Geometry Applications: Area and Volume
In this program we look at applications of area and volume. We do this in the context of three real-world applications. In the first, we look at the sinking of the Titanic in the context of volume and density. |
Applications of Surface Area and Volume, Surface Area and Volume | |
Closed Captioned Video: Geometry Applications: Area and Volume, 1 |
Closed Captioned Video: Geometry Applications: Area and Volume, Segment 1: Volume and Density.
The sinking of the Titanic provides an opportunity to explore volume, density, and buoyancy. Students construct a mathematical model of the Titanic to determine why it sank and what could have been done to prevent it from sinking. |

Closed Captioned Video: Geometry Applications: Area and Volume, 2 |
Closed Captioned Video: Geometry Applications: Area and Volume, Segment 2: Surface Area.
The glass-paneled pyramid at the Louvre Museum in Paris is a tessellation of rhombus-shaped glass panels. Students create a model of the pyramid to calculate the number of panels used to cover the surface area of the pyramid. |
Applications of Surface Area and Volume, Surface Area and Volume | |
Closed Captioned Video: Geometry Applications: Area and Volume, 3 |
Closed Captioned Video: Geometry Applications: Area and Volume, Segment 3: Ratio of Surface Area to Volume.
The Citibank Tower in New York City presents some unique design challenges. In addition it has to cope with a problem that all tall structure have to deal with: heat loss. |
