My name is Alt, but you can call me Sven.

The Volume of this cone, revolved about the y-axis, in terms of constants r,h and variable y is:

Equation of the line following the Hypotenuse:
f(y) = -((yr - hr) / h)

I then found (f(y))^2 and used the washer method to find:
V = -pi [[A] - [B]]

A = [ (r^2)(y^2) / 3(h^2) ] (Limits: 0 & h)
B = [ ((rh)^2)(y) / (h^2) ] (Limits: 0 & h)

I just started Volumes of rotation. Someone want to check?

You are all constructs of my solipsist mind.

Why are you doing volumes of rotation?

Why not? This thread turned into one of mathematics and caps. I thought I'd contribute to the further understanding that hat. Plus I missed out on the challenge.

Wow, I had some pretty good answers to my question.

Also, great read.

Except it's so much easier than that. I found the circumference of the cone at its base in terms of r and a. The circumference easily gives you the radius at the base. You now have a right triangle with the base radius R and hypotenuse r. Use trig to find one of the angles.

That challenge has passed. I'm looking for a volume. How else will we answer pressing questions like: How much beer will fit in this conic hat? Could the Webmaster drink it?

Oh. In that case, I would probably do it by finding radius as a function of h (easily obtained from a linear extrapolation), thus giving me area as a function of h. Then, integrate from h = 0 to h = h.

Can I fax the question to my Discrete Math teacher? Or is that cheating?

Fax it to the phone number that can be translated from the "secret symbols".

The second I read that challenge, I knew Hyle was going to be all over this. Awesome mail sack DeeJ!

Oh wow ignored again. I miss Urk.

Good read, as soon as I saw the word formula I knew this challenge was not for me.

Can we make this thread about pie instead math? That would be a little bit more of my expertise.

Next Mailsack Challenge should be baking themed, you have to mail Bungie pies for taste testing.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

You can never succeed if you never try.

I've tried DMing DeeJ about this, and I can't figure it out. Where do I submit questions to the mail sack at?

All you math people...lets bring this closer to the humanities.


What is the meaning of r?
Is there really a table in the room?
What is the history of origami?
What are the cultural connotations of party hats?

You want to subtract from 90 :)
I'm pretty sure it's 180.

Here's my process. :)
