Question 1153868: A cylinder with r=1 is cut by 2 planes to form a "wedge."
One plane is normal to the axis of the cylinder, the other intersects a diameter of the cylinder and the normal plane at the diameter.
That is, the "width" of the wedge is 2 units.

Not 1 wide. Sort of a typo.
====================
What is the volume of the wedge?

The way I read the question as worded, the volume of the wedge can't be found, because the angle between the two planes is not specified.
