To find the common ratio, start at the end and divide terms:
(8/9) / (4/3) = (2/3)
(4/3) / 2 = (2/3)
2 / 3 = (2/3)
The ratio is 2/3
Cross sections of spheres are cicles. Therefore, if cut parallel to the ends, CYLINDER also has cross sections that match that of a circle.
Answer: 5' 10"
Explanation: Borrow a foot from 8 to make it 7 feet and 16 inches. Subtract 6 from 16 to get 10 inches. Subtract 2 from 7 to get 5 feet. So the answer is 5' 10".
