Cavalieri's Principle and Volume of Composite Figures Answers

The large sphere has a diameter of 20 feet.

A cylinder is shown. A half-sphere is stacked on the top and the bottom of the cylinder. The diameter of the cylinder if 20 and the height of the cylinder is 28.

The composite figure is made up of a triangular prism and a pyramid. The two solids have congruent bases.

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).

A frustum is formed when a plane parallel to a cone’s base cuts off the upper portion as shown.

The composite figure is made up of two congruent rectangular pyramids joined at their bases.

A cone is stacked on top of a cylinder. They both share a circular base. The total height of the composite figure is 20. The height of the cylinder is 11 and the diameter is 12.
