Help me for ths question please.
a. The region bounded by the circle x2+y2=a2 is the base of a solid. Cross sections taken perpendicular to the base and parallel to the y-axis are equilateral triangles.
Find the volume of the solid.
b. A cylindrical hole of constant radius r and height h is bored through the centre of a sphere with radius R.
Find the volume of the solid in terms of h.
c. The region bounded by the curve y=−x2+4x−3 and the x-axis is rotated about the line x=3 to form a solid.

To me, tutor @KMST is the most desirable and most professional tutor at this forum.
Her suggestions are deep and gently, her tone is always perfect and adequate, her solutions
are very instructive. To me, it is always a fiesta to see her appearance at this forum.
But her solution and her suggestion to this concrete problem are not accurate.
The form of the solid in this problem is not a cone.
Vertical section of a cone in (x,y,z)-space with the base as a circle in the (x,y)-plane
by the plane y=b, parallel to z-axis, is not a triangle form - it is a HYPERBOLA.
So, the solution by @KMST should be revised.
To solve this problem, we should take the integral of the area of equilateral triangles in
vertical sections and simply integrate this expression for the equilateral triangle areas
from the y=0 section to the y=a section.
So, we consider the section of the solid y=b by the plane perpendicular to the base z=0
and parallel to z-axis.
This plane makes a chord in the circle x^2+y^2 = a^2 at the base.
The length of this chord is . (1)
This chord is the side of the equilateral triangle - so the area of this triangle is
area(b) = = = . (2)
So, now we should integrate this expression over 'b' from b=0 to b=a.
It is a simple table integral. In order for do not strain my mind, I asked Artificial Intelligence
to calculate this integral. The AI successfully performed this job and produced the answer
integral of the area expression over 'b' from b=0 to b=a is . (3)
The whole volume consists of two symmetrical parts, one in the space 0 <= b <= a
and the other in the space -a <= b <= 0.
Therefore, the volume of the whole solid is doubled expression (3).
ANSWER. The volume of the solid under the problem's question (a) is .
Solved correctly.
