The altitude of a cone is a segment that extends from the apex of a cone to the plane of its _____ and is perpendicular to the plane of the base.
Base
Cavalieri’s principle states that if two geometric solids with the same height have the same cross-sectional area at every level, then they have the same _____.
Volume
A(n) _____ is a two-dimensional diagram of the surfaces of a three-dimensional figure that can be folded to form a geometrical solid.
Net
The ____ of a pyramid is a segment that extends from the apex of a pyramid to the plane of its base and is perpendicular to the plane of the base.
Altitude
A(n) _____ projection is a form of three-dimensional projection that presents six views of an object in which a sight for each view is perpendicular to the plane of the figure.
Orthographic
The lateral surface of a cone is the curved surface that connects the _____ of a cone to the apex of the cone.
Base

Lateral
The _____ height of a pyramid is the distance from the apex to the midpoint of an edge where a lateral face meets the base.
