Question 1: From a solid right circular Cylinder with height and radius of the base is , a right circular cone of the same height and the same base is removed. Find the volume of the remaining solid.

Answer:

Cylinder: Height

Cone: Height

Remaining Volume = Volume of Cylinder – Volume of Cone

Question 2: From a solid cylinder whose height is and radius is , a conical cavity of height and of base radius is hollowed out” Find the volume and total surface area of the remaining solid.

Answer:

Cylinder: Height

Cone: Height

Remaining Volume = Volume of Cylinder – Volume of Cone

Surface Area calculations:

Area of the top of the cylinder

Curved surface area of the cylinder

Curved Surface Area of Cone

Area of the base of the cone

Therefore the total surface area
