Estimating Hemisphere Volume by Averaging
Estimating Hemisphere Volume by Averaging is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 5: Dimensions and Spheres in Illustrative Mathematics, Grade 8.
Key Concepts
The volume of a hemisphere can be estimated by averaging the volumes of a circumscribed cylinder and an inscribed cone. For a hemisphere of radius $r$, the cylinder and cone have height $h=r$. This estimation gives the exact volume of a hemisphere.
$$V {est\ hemisphere} = \frac{V {cylinder} + V {cone}}{2} = \frac{\pi r^3 + \frac{1}{3}\pi r^3}{2} = \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3$$.
