Lesson 11 from Math Wise a program that teaches mathematics as a means to practical ends. The program shows how math applies to problem-solving in the everyday world and aim to help students to use math skills in their own lives. Los Angeles television personality Stephanie Edwards is the program's host. In this episode the city council wants to pass a bill that would prohibit commercial use of the marina. That would sacrifice Cynthia's sailing instructions. But just who is in favor of restricting use of the marina, and why? It takes a while for Cynthia and her friends to determine who to ask.

Summary:
Uses a combination of animation and live-action photography to logically develop the formulas for determining the volume of pyramids, cones, and spheres. After reviewing the formulas for the volumes of prisms and cylinders, the volume of a pyramid with a rectangular base is determined. This is then related to pyramids with non-rectangular bases and cones, the volume of the latter being compared to a cylinder. Defines a sphere and portrays a method of determining its volume. Concludes with commercial and industrial applications of these formulas.
