thats a new one on me - Cavalieri's principle.

courtney233 · Answer

I dont get it \

welshfella · Answer

the cross sections of this  cylinder formed by any parallel plane will be equal to the cross sections of a right cylinder if they are between the same parallel planes

welshfella · Answer

cross section area will be pi * 10^2  = 100 pi

so my guess is the height will be 2500 / 100 = 25 meters.

Sorry but I cant be sure of this as Ive never come across this before - I just looked it up on google.

welshfella · Answer

- but i think perhaps the volume should be 2500 pi cubic meters
