Vdesired = Vblock – Vcylinder
          = lwhblock – ßhcylinder
          = (8)(5)(6) – p(12)(8)
          = 240 – 8p

Sketch circle O with sector AOB:

Do you see that circular segment AB (i.e., the sliver that equals sector AOB minus DAOB) is the cross section of the log?

Since central ÐO = 60° and ÐA @ ÐB (base Ðs of isosc. D), DAOB is equilateral with area s2(Ö3)/4 = 102(Ö3)/4 = 25Ö3.

Asegment AB = Asector AOB – ADAOB
             = (60/360)pr2 – 25Ö3
             = (1/6)p102 – 25Ö3
             = 100p/6 – 25Ö3

Note here that we used the fact that r = 10, which follows from the cross-section diagram above.

Because the log is an extruded shape (i.e., a generalized cylinder),
Vlog = ßh
      = (Asegment AB) h
      = (100p/6 – 25Ö3) (30)
      = 3000p/6 – 750Ö3
      = 500p – 750Ö3 cu. units

TSAlog = Afront cap + Aback cap + Aflat top + Acurved bottom
          = Asegment AB + Asegment AB + (10 · 30) + (60/360)LSAcylinder
          = 2(100p/6 – 25Ö3) + 300 + (1/6) Ch
          = 200p/6 – 50Ö3 + 300 + (1/6)(20p)(30)
          = 200p/6 – 50Ö3 + 300 + 600p/6
          = 800p/6 – 50Ö3 + 300
          = (400p/3 – 50Ö3 + 300) sq. units

Again, note that the circumference C uses the fact that the log has diameter 20, which is clear from the cross-section diagram above.

The trick is to extend the cone upward to apex A:

By similar Ds, ratio GE : FD is the same as ratio AG : AF (be careful not to say AG : GF). But that is also the same as AE : AD (be careful not to say AE : ED).

Let AE = x. Then x/(x + 6) = GE/FD = 9/12. Solving gives
12x = 9(x + 6)
12x = 9x + 54
3x = 54
x = 18

If AD = 24 and FD = 12, then by inspection, rt. Ds AGE and AFD are not only similar but also 30°-60°-90°. (You wouldn’t necessarily have this, but it’s helpful to notice that it happens in this particular problem.) Thus AG = 9Ö3, AF = 12Ö3.

Vfrustum = Vcone ACD – Vcone ABE
          = (1/3)ßbighbig – (1/3)ßsmallhsmall
          = (1/3)(p122)(12Ö3) – (1/3)(p92)(9Ö3)
          = (1728p/3)(Ö3) – (729p/3)(Ö3)
          = (576p)(Ö3) – (243p)(Ö3)
          = 3333 cu. units

22.(a)

The given triangle is 30°-60°-90° with hypotenuse 8. Thus the short leg is 4, and when spun, the figure makes a cone with slant height 8, radius 4, and height 4Ö3.

Vcone = (1/3)ßh
       = (1/3)(p42)(4Ö3)
       = (64/3)(3) cu. units

(b)

When spun, the figure forms a tube with outer radius 4 and inner radius 3 (i.e., a short pipe with walls of thickness 1, outer diameter 8, and inner diameter 6).

Another way to think about this is as a large cylinder with a cylindrical hole removed from its center.

Vdesired = Vouter cyl. – Vinner cyl.
          = ßouterh – ßinnerh
          = (p42)(5) – (p32)(5)
          = 80p – 45p
          = 35p cu. units
