By Cavalieri's Principle, this right triangular prism and right rectangular prism have the same volume. If the center plane intersects the solids parallel to their bases, which of the following choices could be the base and height of the triangular cross section?

• h = 4; b = 12

• h = 4; b = 8

• h = 8; b = 12 

• h = 8; b = 14

What is the volume of an oblique cylinder with a radius of 3 and a height of 9?

The right circular cylinder and the right rectangular prism have the same heights and the same base areas. A plane, parallel to the bases slices the two solids.  If the rectangular cross section has a base length of 16 inches and a width of 4π inches, what is the radius of the cylinder's cross section?

• 32 in

• 8 in

A series of coins are stacked to represent a right circular cylinder (on the left). The coins are then "slid" to represent a distorted cylinder (on the right). The same number of congruent coins was used in each stack.

Which of the following statements will be TRUE regarding these stacks of coins?(Check all that apply)

• The volume of both stacks will be the same.

• The area of a cross section parallel to the bases will not be equal due to the distorted nature of the second stack.

• The height of the distorted stack will be slightly larger than that of the straight stack.

• Cavalieri's Principle can be used in this situation to verify that the volumes of the stacks are equal.
