Summary

The lesson about the cylinder

Learning objectives

  • An equilateral cylinder
  • An axial cross-section
  • Calculating the high, radius, surface and volume of the cylinder

Teacher preparation

  • Discussion of tools and 3D printing. Calculation task.
  • A reconsideration of how basic operations are conducted.
