c. Explain how to use the volume formula of a pyramid to show that the volume formula of a circular
1
cone is 𝜋𝜋𝜋𝜋2 ℎ, where 𝑟𝑟 is the radius of the cone and ℎ is the height of the cone.

2. A circular cylinder has a radius between 5.50 and 6.00 cm and a volume of 225 cm3 . Write an inequality
that represents the range of possible heights the cylinder can have to meet this criterion to the nearest
hundredth of a centimeter.
3. A machine part is manufactured from a block of iron with circular cylindrical slots. The block of iron has a
width of 14 in., a height of 16 in., and a length of 20 in. The number of cylinders drilled out of the block
is determined by the weight of the leftover block, which must be less than 1,000 lb.
a. If iron has a weight of roughly 491 lb/ft 3, how many cylinders with the same height as the block and
with radius 2 in. must be drilled out of the block in order for the remaining solid to weigh less than
1,000 lb.?
b. If iron ore costs $115 per ton (1 ton = 2200 lb.) and the price of each part is based solely on its
weight of iron, how many parts can be purchased with $1,500? Explain your answer.
4. Rice falling from an open bag piles up into a figure conical in shape
with an approximate radius of 5 cm.
a. If the angle formed by the slant of the pile with the base is
roughly 30°, write an expression that represents the volume of
rice in the pile.
b. If there are approximately 20 grains of rice in a cubic centimeter, approximately how many grains of
rice are in the pile? Round to the nearest whole grain.
5. In a solid hemisphere, a cone is removed as shown. Calculate the volume of the resulting solid. In
addition to your solution, explain the strategy you used in your solution.
Square pyramid:
b. Cut by a plane through the vertex and perpendicular to the base
c. Cut by a vertical plane that is parallel to an edge of the base but not passing through the vertex
e. Describe the radius of the circular cross-section cut by a plane that does not pass through the center
of the sphere.
Triangular Prism:
f. Cut by a plane parallel to a base
7.
a. A 3 × 5 rectangle is revolved about one of its sides of length 5 to create a solid of revolution. Find
the volume of the solid.
b. A 3-4-5 right triangle is revolved about a leg of length 4 to create a solid of revolution. Describe the
solid.
c. A 3-4-5 right triangle is revolved about its legs to create two solids. Find the volume of each solid
created.
