Problems:
1. Two balls having radii of 6 inches and 4 inches respectively are placed in a cylindrical
container of diameter 18 inches and a depth of 24inches. If the container will be filled
with water, determine the height of water just enough to cover the two balls.
2. Find the radius of a circle inscribed in a regular pentagon of side 24 inches.
3. Determine the length of the belt that passes around two pulleys of radii 18 and 12inches
respectively whose distance between their centers is 34 inches.
4. A composite figure consists of a regular isosceles trapezoid (non-parallel sides equal)
whose lower base is 6 inches and a segment of a circle. If the non-parallel sides are
tangents to the segment at points A and B, find the area of the composite figure.

SITUATION:
Shown in figures below are circular arcs with center at each corner of the square and radius
equal to the side of the square.

5.

Find the area as shown in figure 3.


6. Find the area as shown in figure 4.
7. Find the area as shown in figure 5.
8. Find the area as shown in figure 6.
9. Circular arcs of radii 10 cm are drawn inside the circle of radius 10 cm. The centers of
each arc are on the circle and so arranged so that they are equally distant from each
other (pls see figure 2).
10. Find the area of the five pointed star inscribed in a circle of radius 20cm.
11.A volume of 23 cubic centimeters of water are poured into a conical vessel and it
reached a depth of 12 cm. How much water must be added so that the depth will reach
18 cm?
12. A sphere of radius 4 cm rests in a conical wine glass whose semi-vertical angle is 20 0. If
the wine glass is 22cm high, determine the volume of wine in the conical wine glass just
enough to touch the bottom of the sphere.
13. A piece of wood as shown in figure 3 is in the formed of a prismatoid. If the bases of the
prismatoid (rectangle ABCD & triangle EFG) are parallel planes, determine the area of
the wood.
14.A railway cut 200 feet long and 30ft wide at the bottom is made with sloping sides,
which are 80 ft and 60 ft in length. The 80 feet side is inclined 45 0 and the other side is
inclined 300 to the horizontal. Find the cost of removing the earth at $2 per truck load if
the truck has a capacity of 4 cubic yard.
15. A conical tank of height 8 ft and radius of 3 ft is filled with water at 5 ft deep. If the tank
will be inverted upside down with cover on top, what will the expected height of water
be?
