We are given with an isosceles triangle having a vertex on the curve given y =<span>27-x^2</span> .
The area of the triangle, A= xy = x (27-x^2)
A' = 27-x^2-2x^2 = 0
x = 3
Amax = 3(27-9) = 54 units2
The wrong statement: The volume or the smaller cone cannot be determined because its height is unknown.
We already know that the larger cone has a height of 8 cm and that the smaller cone is just 1/4 of 8 cm.
8×1/4 = 2 cm.
You can still find its volume by using the formula 1/3πr^2.
Answer:
The answer is a trapezoid.
