a)

Check the picture below.

b)

volume wise, we know the smaller pyramid is 1/8 th of the whole pyramid, so the volume of the whole pyramid must be 8/8 th.

Now, if we take off 1/8 th of the volume of whole pyramid, what the whole pyramid is left with is 7/8 th of its total volume, and that 7/8 th is the truncated part, because the 1/8 we chopped off from it, is the volume of the tiny pyramid atop.

Now, what's the ratio of the tiny pyramid to the truncated bottom?

\stackrel{\textit{\Large Volumes}}{\cfrac{\textit{small pyramid}}{\textit{frustum}}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{1}{8}whole ~~}{\frac{7}{8}whole}}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{1}{8} ~~}{\frac{7}{8}}\implies \cfrac{1}{8}\cdot \cfrac{8}{7}\implies \cfrac{1}{7}

What is the area of a circle, if it's radius is 2cm?
slega [8]
25.13cm^2 or 8pi. The radius of a circle is 2 x pi x r^2. R is the radius. 2 x pi x 2^2cm -> 2 x pi x 4cm -> 8cm x pi -> 25.13cm^2. Leaving the answer in terms of pi would be 8pi.
