What educators are saying
Fun way to find the volume of composite figures. Thank you for providing an answer key. It looks like the answer for #7 should be 1203.7 ft^3 instead of 1202.8 ft^3.
Really engaging activity! Loved the Pythagorean Theorem questions - very appropriate for High School Geometry.
