Let L = the length of the first piece.
16 - L is the length of the second piece.

Together the 2 pieces must add to 16.

Firewood can be sold in cords. the wood is cut into equal lengths and stacked evenly in a rack. which geometric shape can be use
Nadya [2.5K]

To estimate the volume of the chord of wood, since the wood exists cut into equal lengths and stacked evenly in a rack then we can use a cylinder as a model.

<h3>What is a cylinder?</h3>

In mathematics, a cylinder exists as a three-dimensional solid that holds two parallel bases joined by a curved surface, at a fixed distance. These bases exist normally circular (like a circle) and the center of the two bases exists joined by a line segment, which exists named the axis.

A cylinder exists as a closed solid that contains two parallel circular bases joined by a curved surface.

To calculate the volume of the chord of wood, since the wood exists cut into equal lengths and stacked evenly in a rack then we can use a cylinder as a model.
