A circle and a cone are inside a cylinder and the diameters
\n" ); document.write( "and heights of the solids are equal.
\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "A circle is a plane figure, not a solid. Then in (a)i),

\n" ); document.write( "a) What fraction of the volume of the cylinder is
\n" ); document.write( "i) the sphere

\r\n" );
document.write( "you ask about a sphere but you haven't mentioned a sphere \r\n" );
document.write( "at all. Maybe you meant \"sphere\" and wrote \"circle\" by \r\n" );
document.write( "mistake. But if the cone has the same diameter and height \r\n" );
document.write( "then it reaches from top to bottom of the cylinder, and\r\n" );
document.write( "there would be no room for a sphere of the same diameter. \r\n" );
document.write( "So both the cone and a sphere of the same diameter and \r\n" );
document.write( "height could not fit inside a cylinder at the same time. \r\n" );
document.write( "Here are some formulas you might use to figure out what \r\n" );
document.write( "you want. \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The volume of a cylinder is , \r\n" );
document.write( "The volume of a cone is \r\n" );
document.write( "The volume of a sphere is \r\n" );
document.write( "The surface area of a cylinder open at each end is\r\n" );
document.write( ", closed with a circle at either end adds\r\n" );
document.write( "a circle of area  each.\r\n" );
document.write( "The surface area of a cone open at the top is \r\n" );
document.write( ", where l = the slant height. Closed at the\r\n" );
document.write( "top adds a circle .\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Also, the ratio of X to Y is  or \r\n" );
