📋 WHAT'S INCLUDED (6 PAGES, PDF)

Page 1 — Premium Cover UM Printables branding and sampler overview

Page 2 — Formula Reference Card A classroom-ready reference featuring:

• Cylinder: V = πr²h • Cone: V = ⅓πr²h • Sphere: V = 4/3πr³

Page 3 — Fully Worked Example Step-by-step cylinder volume example:

r = 4 cm, h = 10 cm → V = 160π cm³

The solution models the process: state the formula → substitute → simplify → label with units.

Page 4 — 6 Practice Problems • 2 cylinder problems • 2 cone problems • 2 sphere problems • Hints included for student support

Page 5 — Complete Answer Key Brief worked solutions for all 6 practice problems, allowing students to self-check their work.
