Karl has finished harvesting his barley and stored it short-term in a conical pile in his yard.
\n" ); document.write( "Karl’s auger is 41 ft long and the pile has a diameter of 75 ft.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "a. Find the height of Karl’s pile using the Pythagorean Theorem.
\n" ); document.write( " Round to one decimal place.
\n" ); document.write( "A right triangle formed by the height, the radius (37.5) and the 41' augar is the hypotenuse
\n" ); document.write( "h^2 + 37.5^2 = 41^2
\n" ); document.write( "h^2 = 1681 - 1496.25
\n" ); document.write( "h^2 = 275.75
\n" ); document.write( "h = \"sqrt%28275.75%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "h = 16.6 ft is the height
\n" ); document.write( "< >
\n" ); document.write( "b. Find the volume of barley in Karl’s pile to the nearest cubic foot.
\n" ); document.write( "the Volume of a cone: V = \"1%2F3\"*\"pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah\"
\n" ); document.write( "V = \"1%2F3\"*\"pi%2A37.5%5E2%2A16.6\"
\n" ); document.write( "V = 24,456 cu/ft
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
