5-11.
A horizontal flag, composed of a quarter-circle and straight line segments, is shown below.
Imagine rotating the flag about its horizontal pole and describe the resulting three-dimensional figure. Draw a picture of this figure on your paper.
If the flag were rotated it would look like a mushroom.
Find the volume of the rotated flag.
Use geometry to find the volume of the resulting three-dimensional figure.
