1. What is the volume of a frustum of an
aluminum cone whose altitude is 15 in and,
whose lower and upper bases have radii
10 in and 5 in respectively.

Examples
2. The height of a storage bin, in the form of
a frustum of a rectangular pyramid, is 6 ft.
Its volume is 818 ft3, and the upper base is
4 ft by 16 ft. What are the dimensions of the
lower base?

Examples

3.The bottom side and height of an inverted

frustum of a square pyramid are 15 cm and
30 cm, respectively. If it is to hold 12,250 cm3
of water, find the side of the upper base.
