Question

Find the volume V of the described solid S.

A frustum of a right circular cone with height h, lower base radius R, and top radius r.

Solution

The volume V of a frustum of a right circular cone can be found using the formula:

V = (1/3) * π * h * (r² + R² + r*R)

Where:

  • V is the volume,
  • h is the height of the frustum,
  • r is the radius of the smaller base (top),
  • R is the radius of the larger base (bottom),
  • π is a mathematical constant whose approximate value is 3.14159.

This formula is derived from the formula for the volume of a cone, subtracting the volume of the smaller cone (top) from the volume of the larger cone (bottom).
