\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If the solid has a circular base, then it is a cone or a cylinder. Since the intersection of a plane perpendicular to a given diameter of the base and the solid is a square, then the solid must be a right circular cylinder, and furthermore, the height must be equal to the measure of a diameter. That is to say .\r
