Cavalieri's principle states that if two solids of equal height have equal cross-sectional areas at every level parallel to the respective bases, then the two solids have equal volume. The two shaded solids both have a height of 2r units. At every level, the areas of the cross sections of both solids equal π(r2 - b2). Therefore, the formula for the volume of the sphere can be derived by writing an expression that represents the volume of
c. the solid between the two cones and the cylinder.
A rectangular prism with a square base is cut from the center of a triangular prism. Each side of the square base measures 1.7 units. ~5.7, 1.7, 5, 4 What is the volume of the shaded solid? Round to the nearest tenth of a cubic unit.
