Please have a look at the attached photo.
My answer:
As given in the question, we know that:
The ratio of the area of the circle to the area of the square is π/4
- The formula to find the volume of the cone is:
V = 1/3*the height*the base area
<=> V1 = 1/3*h*π
- The formula to find the volume of the pyramid is:
V2 = 1/3*the height*the base area
<=> V = 1/3*h*4
=> the ratio of volume of the cone to the pyramid is:
=
= (1/3*h*π ) / ( 1/3*h*4
)
= π/4
S we can conclude that the volume of the cone equals π/4 the volume of the pyramid
Hope it will find you well.
