The inside of a vase is an inverted cone 2.983 in. across the top and 5.016 in. deep. If a heavy sphere 2.498 in. in diameter is dropped into it when the vase is full of water, how much water will overflow?
This is a group of solids in which the volume is equal to one-third of the product of base area and altitude. There are two solids that belong to this group; the pyramid and the cone.
