Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image shows a frustum with the following details:
- Height of the frustum, cm.
- Area of the top of the frustum, cm².
- Area of the base of the frustum, cm².
To calculate the volume of the frustum, we use the formula for the volume of a frustum of a pyramid or cone:
Where:
- is the volume of the frustum.
- is the height.
- and are the areas of the top and base, respectively.
Let's calculate the volume using this formula.The volume of the frustum is .
