1.

a cylindrical bucket, 32 cm high and with radius of base 18 cm , is filled with sand. This bucket is emptied on the ground and a conical heap of sand is formed. If the height of the conical heap is 24 cm, find the radius and the slant height of the heap​

Answer»

Answer:

Height of cylindrical BUCKET(h

1

)=32 cm

Radius of the base of the bucket (r

)=18 cm

∴Volume of the sand in the cylindrical bucket=πr
