  2. Cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone

    A cone and a cylinder have radius r and height h. 2. The volume ratio is maintained when the height is scaled to h' = r √ π. 3. Decompose it into thin slices. 4. Using Cavalieri's principle, reshape each slice into a square of the same area. 5. The pyramid is replicated twice. 6. Combining them into a cube shows that the volume ratio is 1:3.

  3. Method of exhaustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_exhaustion

    The volume of a sphere is 4 times that of a cone having a base of the same radius and height equal to this radius; The volume of a cylinder having a height equal to its diameter is 3/2 that of a sphere having the same diameter; The area bounded by one spiral rotation and a line is 1/3 that of the circle having a radius equal to the line segment ...

  4. Hypercone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercone

    If it is restricted between the hyperplanes w = 0 and w = r for some nonzero r, then it may be closed by a 3-ball of radius r, centered at (0,0,0,r), so that it bounds a finite 4-dimensional volume. This volume is given by the formula ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ π r 4 , and is the 4-dimensional equivalent of the solid cone .

    A cone and a cylinder have radius r and height h. 2. The volume ratio is maintained when the height is scaled to h' = r √ π. 3. Decompose it into thin slices. 4.

  7. The Method of Mechanical Theorems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Method_of_Mechanical...

    The volume of the cone is 1/3 its base area times the height. The base of the cone is a circle of radius 2, with area 4 π {\displaystyle 4\pi } , while the height is 2, so the area is 8 π / 3 {\displaystyle 8\pi /3} .

  8. On the Sphere and Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Sphere_and_Cylinder

    The ratio of the volume of a sphere to the volume of its circumscribed cylinder is 2:3, as was determined by Archimedes. The principal formulae derived in On the Sphere and Cylinder are those mentioned above: the surface area of the sphere, the volume of the contained ball, and surface area and volume of the cylinder.

  9. Spherical sector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_sector

    If the radius of the sphere is denoted by r and the height of the cap by h, the volume of the spherical sector is =. This may also be written as V = 2 π r 3 3 ( 1 − cos ⁡ φ ) , {\displaystyle V={\frac {2\pi r^{3}}{3}}(1-\cos \varphi )\,,} where φ is half the cone aperture angle, i.e., φ is the angle between the rim of the cap and the ...
