For Friday's Quiz there are two formulas you need to know.
Prisms and Cylinders
Have two congruent bases
V = (area of base)(height)
Pyramids and Cones
Have one base and come to a point on top
V = (1/3)(area of base)(height)
The bases can be: Circles, squares, rectangles, or polygons
If it is a polygon you treat that part like a Chapter 8 question.
Remember that area of a polygon = (1/2)*n*s*a
Imagine an ice cream cone sitting inside of a can. If their "base" was the same size, this means that the cone's volume would be (1/3) of the volume of the can of soup (cylinder).
