An oblique cylinder has a radius of 9 centimeters and a volume of 486 cubic centimeters.
Use Cavalieri’s Principle to calculate the height of the solid.
:
The Cavalieri's principal "A method of finding the volume of any solid for which cross-sections by parallel planes have equal areas. therefore you find the area of the base and multiply it by the height, actually You find the volume of an oblique cylinder is the same as a regular cylinder
pi%2A9%5E2%2Ah+=+486
254.469h = 486
h = 486%2F254.469
h = 1.9098
