Multiply both sides by 3, then square root both sides.

That would indeed be the radius, but you should get used to working like this in the exams:

27=13r227=\frac{1}{3}r^2 (27 comes from 270 over 10 as you might expect)
81=r2\rightarrow 81=r^2
9=r\rightarrow 9=r

Yes, but my layout would be clearer for the examiner/whoever is marking it as it shows logical progression to get to r and convinces them that its value is 9. You can move on nonetheless :smile:

1cosx dx. \displaystyle \int \frac{1}{\cos x } \ dx.


sorry im at work so quick typing this.

1/Cosx dx. This is a standard integral but you can use the quotient rule to prove it. This is just workings but if you dont get any part of it then ask.

1/Cosx dx = ((Cosx)(0) - (1)(-Sinx)) / (Cosx)^2 +C

= Sinx / Cos^2x +C

= (Sinx /Cosx)*(1/Cosx) +C

=SecxTanx +C


The question asks you for the total volume though, not just finding the radius.

Integrate, not differentiate. :smile:

Wrong.

Wrong.


Can you do it?

Indeed, but only because I remember what to multiply the integral by. If I didn't, I would probably struggle without help.

There's a very neat substitution but I won't say it and give it away (it may be quite obvious).

Sorry I'm hangover and at work so my brain no work ahah yeah but all you do is 1/cosx = secx and then use data sheet as its on there,the proof is difficultimage.png

That's what I was asking for, the proof.

So the radius is 9?

yes


Why are you working out the volume of the cone if you're given it in the question? Also that wouldn't give you the right volume anyway because 92189^2 \not= 18 and not to mention you're missing π\pi
