Lesson 26: Visualizing Solid Figures

Objective: Visualize and describe the different solid figures: cube, prism,
pyramid, cylinder, cone, and sphere.

A solid or space figure is a three-dimensional (3D) figure that has length, width, and
height (depth). Cube, prism, pyramid, cylinder, cone, and sphere are some of the examples of
a solid figure. These figures can be described by counting the number of its faces, edges, and
vertices. Do you know each of them? Let’s study the figures below.

Cube It is composed of 6 square faces and has 12 edges, and 8

vertices.

Rectangular Prism It is composed of 6 rectangular faces and has 12 edges

and 8 vertices.

Pyramid Its base is a polygon (which can be a triangle, square,

etc.) and it’s lateral faces are triangular. A square
pyramid has 8 edges and 5 vertices.
Cylinder It has 2 circular bases with the same size with a curved
lateral face. It has 2 edges and no vertex.

Cone It has one circular base. It has a curved lateral face that
narrows smoothly from its base to up to its vertex. It has
one edge and one vertex.
Sphere It is a round solid figure in which every point on its
surface is equidistant to its center. It has only one face,
no edge,
and no vertex.

 Lesson 28: Faces of Solid Figures

Objective: Identifies the faces of solid figures. (M6GE-IIIb-30)

A solid figure is a three-dimensional figure that has a length, width, and height. When
a three-dimensional figure is laid out flat, and the faces are all shown, we can see a pattern
which is called a net. The net can be folded to form a solid figure.

 Lesson 29: Finding the nth Term in a Sequence

Objective: Formulates the rule in finding the nth term in a sequence. (M6AL-IIId-7)

A sequence is a set of numbers written in order by the application of a definite rule.

Each number in a sequence is called a term. Following certain patterns can help us formulate
rules and continue a given sequence of numbers, figures or to fill in the missing numbers and
symbols.

How to Find the Next Term in a Sequence?

Let’s study the following sequence below and fill up the next two numbers.
4, 8, 12, 16, ,

Solution: Look for a pattern.

4, 8, 12, 16, ,

+4 +4 +4 +4 +4

As we notice, every term after the previous is added by 4. Following this pattern
will complete the missing numbers in the sequence.
4, 8, 12, 16, _20, _24_

How to Formulate the nth Term Rule in a Sequence?

Look at the sequence below and determine the nth term rule being used.
19, 22, 25, 28, 31, 34

Solution:
Step 1: Find the pattern on each term.
19, 22, 25, 28, 31, 34

+3 +3 +3 +3 +3
Since you add 3 on every term, our nth term rule will start at 3n.

67
 Step 2: Find the difference between the terms in the sequence and the multiples of our
pattern.
19, 22, 25, 28, 31, 34
+16

3 6 9 12 15 18
Since we must add 16 to our pattern to get every term in our sequence, then
our nth term rule will be followed by +16.

Step 3: Form the nth term rule then check.

Based on what we have done in step 1 and 2, our nth term rule will be 3n + 16.
Checking:
Get the terms in the sequence using the rule 3n + 16.
1st term (n=1): 3(1) + 16 = 3 + 16 = 19
2nd term (n=2): 3(2) + 16 = 6 + 16 = 22
3rd term (n=3): 3(3) + 16 = 9 + 16 = 25
4th term (n=4): 3(4) + 16 = 12 + 16 = 28
5th term (n=5): 3(5) + 16 = 15 + 16 = 31
6th term (n=6): 3(6) + 16 = 18 + 16 = 34
Since the answers matched with each term in the given sequence, then our nth
term rule is correct.

ACTIVITY 1: NEXT IN LINE

Directions: Give the next three terms of the following sequence.

1) 1, 4, 7, 10, , ,
2) 26, 21, 16, 11, , ,

4) 3, 6, 12, 24, , ,
5) 2, 6, 18, 54, , ,

2) 4n+3: , ,
3) 3n-1: , ,

5) 5n+2: , ,

ACTIVITY 3: “MAKE YOUR RULES”

Directions: Write the nth term rule using the following sequence

1) 12, 19, 26, 33, 40, … nth term rule:

Time
Objectives:
1) Calculates speed, distance, and time. (M6ME-IIIg-17)
2) Solves problems involving average rate and speed. (M6ME-IIIg-18)

 Speed – is a scalar quantity that refers to “how fast an object is moving”. Speed can
be thought of as the rate by which an object covers distance.
 Distance – is the total length between two positions.
 Time – is the measured period during which an action, process or condition exists or
continues.

triangle. The triangles will help you remember these 3 formulas:
