Problem 870
A metal sphere is melted and recast into a hollow spherical shell whose outer radius is \(277 \mathrm{~cm}\). The radius of the hollow interior of the shell is equal to the radius of the original sphere. Find, to the nearest centimeter, the radius of the original sphere.
Problem 873
Given a sphere of radius \(\mathrm{r}\), find the volume of the regular tetrahedron that circumscribes the sphere.
Problem 876
a) Find the volume of a solid right circular cone whose height is \(4 \mathrm{ft}\). and whose base has radius \(3 \mathrm{ft}\). b) What is the slant height of this cone? c) Find the surface area of this cone.
Problem 877
A cone is generated by rotating a right triangle with sides 3 , 4 , and 5 about the leg whose measure is 4 . Find the total area and volume of the cone.
Problem 888
Each leg of an isosceles triangle is \(3 \mathrm{~m}\) units in length and the base is \(2 \mathrm{~m}\) units. A line \(\mathrm{s}\) is drawn through the vertex of the triangle parallel to the base. The triangle is revolved through \(360^{\circ}\) about line s with the base of the triangle always remaining parallel to s. Find, in terms of \(\mathrm{m}\), the volume of the resulting solid.
