Let P be on AB such that OP is perpendicular to AB. \n" ); document.write( "Because OP=3 and the radius of the cylinder is 6, triangle AOB is composed of two congruent 30-60-90 right triangles. \n" ); document.write( "Find the area of the cross section of the water as \n" ); document.write( "(1) total area of the circular cross section; minus \n" ); document.write( "(2) the area of the sector AOB; plus \n" ); document.write( "(3) the area of triangle AOB \n" ); document.write( "Then multiply that area by the 24-inch length of the cylinder to get the volume of water. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
