① This interactive GeoGebra activity demonstrates how to calculate the volume of composite solids formed by combining prisms and pyramids, offering randomized practice problems with immediate feedback. ② Core mathematical concepts include volume formulas for prisms and pyramids, decomposition of composite shapes, and spatial reasoning in solid geometry. ③ Construction highlights: Based on the construction summary, the activity uses GeoGebra commands such as Textfield, Prism, Segment, and Polygon to build multiple prisms (e.g., PrismA1) with their faces and edges, along with an InputBox1 for user answers, and buttons like TryAnother and HowDidIDo to generate new problems or show solutions. ④ Suitable for middle-to-high school students learning solid geometry, or as a classroom practice tool for teachers to reinforce volume calculation skills.
