VIDEO: Geometry Applications: 3D Geometry, 3 | VIDEO: Geometry Applications: 3D Geometry, Segment 3: Cylinders The Shanghai Tower in China is a stack of cylindrical shapes, where each successive layer is a percentage decrease of its lower neighbor. As with the previous section, this introduces the notion of a geometric sequence and series. — CLICK THE PREVIEW BUTTON TO SEE THE VIDEO —Study these animations to learn the basic properties of these 3D figures. In particular, make a note of their sides, edges, and vertices. Look for any symmetries they have. Look for polygon shapes that are familiar. Finally, think of real-world examples that use these figures. Below we also include information about Platonic solids and 2D nets of these 3D figures. To get a better understanding of these 3D figures, study these basic forms. |
