\"R\"= radius of the cylinder,
\n" ); document.write( "\"h\"= height of the cylinder.
\n" ); document.write( "A cross-section of the sphere, with the cylinder
\n" ); document.write( "(sliced along the middle) looks like this:
\n" ); document.write( " Applying the Pythagorean theorem, \"%28h%2F2%29%5E2%2BR%5E2=1%5E2\"-->\"%28h%2F2%29%5E2=1-R%5E2\"-->\"h%2F2=sqrt%281-R%5E2%29\"-->\"h=2sqrt%281-R%5E2%29\" .
\n" ); document.write( "Since for a cylinder, \"Volume=pi%2AR%5E2%2Ah\" ,
