1-152.
The shaded region below represents a quarter circle combined with a right triangle "flag."
Imagine rotating this flag about its "pole" and describe the resulting three-dimensional figure. Draw a picture of this figure on your paper. To help you visualize this, use the .
Find the volume of the rotated flag.
Sum together the volumes of the cone and the half-sphere. Note that the radius is obtained by using the trigonometry rule for
triangles. The volume of a sphere is
, so the volume of half a sphere would be half of that. The volume for a cone is .
Use the eTool below to visualize the flag.
