SOLUTION: a wedge is cut from a cylinder of radius 3m by two planes, one perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder and the other passing through the diameter of the section made by the first

Question 1178401: a wedge is cut from a cylinder of radius 3m by two planes, one perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder and the other passing through the diameter of the section made by the first plane and inclined to this plane at an angle of 45 degree. find the volume of the wedge?
