@LastDayWork

OpenStudy (anonymous):

these were the questions i was messaging you about

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for the first one i got triangle and for the second one i got circle and for the other ones i dont know those ones

OpenStudy (lastdaywork):

"for the first one i got triangle and for the second one i got circle" Correct Now try to cut a sphere into two equal parts. What do you think will be its cross-section ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

will it be cylinder

OpenStudy (lastdaywork):

Circle :|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it will be circle also

OpenStudy (lastdaywork):

A cross-section is always a planar shape. Rotation creates a 3D shape

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats for the third one correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

circle is for the third one right

OpenStudy (lastdaywork):

"shape created when a rectangle is rotated about the y-axis shape created when a right triangle is rotated about the y-axis" I need to see the diagram for these..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is no diagram

OpenStudy (lastdaywork):

Yep! Answer 3 is circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so whats the one for this one: "shape created when a rectangle is rotated about the y-axis"

OpenStudy (lastdaywork):

I need a diagram for the last two parts.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you want me to find one on the internet?

OpenStudy (lastdaywork):

Wait a sec..the original question came without a diagram ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i said that and you said you needed one

OpenStudy (lastdaywork):

In that case, consider this diagram.. |dw:1391694912734:dw| Tell me, which 3D shape will appear when you rotate the rectangle (very fast)
