  3. Tree volume measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_volume_measurement

    The value 75.4 = 24 π, where 24 π substitutes for factor of 12 π in the formula for a volume of frustum of a cone encompassing a full tree using one base circumference, converting it to a volume formula that uses a basal circumference that is the average of circumferences C 1 and C 2.

  4. Cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone

    A right circular cone and an oblique circular cone A double cone (not shown infinitely extended) 3D model of a cone. A cone is a three-dimensional geometric shape that tapers smoothly from a flat base (frequently, though not necessarily, circular) to a point called the apex or vertex that is not contained in the base.

  5. Tree measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_measurement

    Cumulative trunk volume is calculated by adding the volume of the measured segments of the tree together. The volume of each segment is calculated as the volume of a frustum of a cone where: Volume= h(π/3)(r 1 2 + r 2 2 +r 1 r 2) Frustum of a cone. A similar, but more complex formula can be used where the trunk is significantly more elliptical ...

    The Egyptians knew the correct formula for the volume of such a truncated square pyramid, but no proof of this equation is given in the Moscow papyrus. The volume of a conical or pyramidal frustum is the volume of the solid before slicing its "apex" off, minus the volume of this "apex":

  7. Method of exhaustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_exhaustion

    Proposition 11: The volume of a cone (or cylinder) of the same height is proportional to the area of the base. [6] Proposition 12: The volume of a cone (or cylinder) that is similar to another is proportional to the cube of the ratio of the diameters of the bases. [7] Proposition 18: The volume of a sphere is proportional to the cube of its ...

  8. Steradian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steradian

    This is analogous to the way a plane angle projected onto a circle defines a circular arc on the circumference, whose length is proportional to the angle. Steradians can be used to measure a solid angle of any shape. The solid angle subtended is the same as that of a cone with the same projected area.

  9. Conical spiral - Wikipedia

    Initially the cone and the plane touch at the purple line. For the development of a conical spiral [ 3 ] the distance ρ ( φ ) {\displaystyle \rho (\varphi )} of a curve point ( x , y , z ) {\displaystyle (x,y,z)} to the cone's apex ( 0 , 0 , z 0 ) {\displaystyle (0,0,z_{0})} and the relation between the angle φ {\displaystyle \varphi } and ...
