Concept explainers

Cylinders

A cylinder is a three-dimensional solid shape with two parallel and congruent circular bases, joined by a curved surface at a fixed distance. A cylinder has an infinite curvilinear surface.

Cones

A cone is a three-dimensional solid shape having a flat base and a pointed edge at the top. The flat base of the cone tapers smoothly to form the pointed edge known as the apex. The flat base of the cone can either be circular or elliptical. A cone is drawn by joining the apex to all points on the base, using segments, lines, or half-lines, provided that the apex and the base both are in different planes.

Ms. Reece's 5th grade class wants to figure out how tall the school flagpole is. On a sunny day, the class goes outside and measures that the shadow of the flagpole is about 23 feet, 3 inches long. At the same time, Juan's shadow is 5 feet, 2 inches long. Juan is 4 feet, 6 inches tall. Determine the (approximate) height of the flagpole using a method that the children in Ms. Reece's class could find plausible. Express your answer in feet and inches. The children know about multiplication and division, but they don't know any more advanced mathematics, such as setting up proportions, so you can't use proportions to do this.
