Could you teachers please look up Cavalieri's Principal and derive this formula correctly for the students? You're students must be morons if you tell them this proves anything.
@gmodpenguin24 I think I need to explain why I insist this is an observation, not a proof. If you want to prove mathematical propositions, then you must use mathematical objects like the axioms or theorems (which are actually derived from the axioms). Visuality ussualy misleads because mathematical objects are not visual, or concrete. All of them are abstract It’s hard to explain this concept here with limited words.
for those who are not teachers, stop being so critical. This video was an AMAZING tool to show how students would derive the formula for volume of a pyramid!
I hope nobody teaching math thinks this is DERIVING a formula. If so, it shows why we suck so bad in math. You derive a formula with logic and iron clad mathematic reasoning (proof). You can show 10,000,000 examples and you have proved (or derived) nothing.
.. its a shame some if not most schools today focus more on memorizing instead of understanding math such as the formula for finding volume of pyramid.

this just shows that the volume of a pyramid is 1/3 x base area x height of the prism, not really easy to see it n make a link

This isn't deriving the formula. It's one example. It proves nothing. Moron or bad teacher.

good observation but this proves nothing.

@utku1903 dumb ass
It means that the volume of a pyramid is 1/3 of a cube

@gmodpenguin24 This is not a PROOF. This is an observation. Before prove your stupidity, learn the difference between them.

@utku1903 You are a dumb ass this clearly shows the a pyramid is 1/3 of a cube, if you think this is not proof you should go hang your self dumb ass!

Observe what happens - I can fill 1 cube with 3 pyramids full of my urine. *praise me*

i think it looks like urine cos if it was plain water you wouldn't be able to see the water level but srsly, gross, use blue or something ._.
anyway. Lol. I'm doing a worksheet now. :/

nice demo, but the pieces of paper are so amateurish. The microphone on the camera is clearly working, so why not narrate it?
