Example Question #43 : Cubes

A cylinder is cut out of a cube as shown by the figure below.

Find the volume of the figure.

Possible Answers:

285.61

276.61

205.27

295.48

Correct answer:

276.61

Explanation:

In order to find the volume of the figure, we must first find the volumes of the cube and the cylinder.

Recall how to find the volume of a cube.

$\text{Volume of Cube}=\text{side}^3$

Plug in the given side length of the cube to find the volume.

$\text{Volume of Cube}=9^3=729$

Next, recall how to find the volume of a cylinder.

$\text{Volume of Cylinder}=\pi\times\text{radius}^2\times\text{height}$

Use the given diameter to find the length of the radius.

$\text{Radius}=\frac{\text{Diameter}}{2}=\frac{8}{2}=4$

Find the volume of the cylinder.

$\text{Volume of Cylinder}=\pi\times 4^2 \times 9=144\pi$

To find the volume of the figure, subtract the volume of the cylinder from the volume of the cube.

$\text{Volume of Figure}=729-144\pi=276.61$

Make sure to round to places after the decimal.
