Question
The following figure shows a solid of uniform cross-section. Find the volume of the solid. All measurements are in centimeters.
Assume that all angles in the figures are right angles.
Solution
The given figure can be divided into two cuboids of dimensions 6 cm, 4 cm, 3 cm, and 9 cm respectively. Hence, volume of solid
= 9 x 4 x 3 + 6 x 4 x 3
= 108 + 72
= 180 cm3.
