Example
6 cm
Two solid glass paperweights are shown at the right.
What is the volume of glass used to make each
paperweight? Write the volumes in terms of T.
4 cm
8 cm
Volume of Cone
Volume of Cylinder
V-B
V = Bh
= 'h
= .42.3
= 32
= 48
The volume of glass used in the cone paperweight is
32 cubic centimeters, and the volume of glass used
in the cylinder paperweight is 48 cubic centimeters.

= 1 / 1 • 4².6
In the example, why was 4 and not 8 substituted for
rto find the volume of the cylinder?
