CCSS IP Math II 6.5.2 Example 2
Find the dimensions for a cone that has the same volume as a pyramid of the same height as the cone. Both the cone and the pyramid have a height of meters. The volume of the pyramid is cubic meters. A cone and a pyramid both taper to a point or vertex at the top. The “slant” of the taper is linear, meaning it is a straight line. The dimensions of both the cone and the pyramid change at a constant rate from base to tip.
