Activity 6.2.1: Consider a circular cone of radius 3 and height 5 , which we view horizontally as pictured in the Figure. Our goal in this activity is to use a definite integral to determine the volume of the cone. a. Find a formula for the linear function y=f(x) that is pictured in the figure. b. For the representative slice of thickness ?x that is located horizontally at a location x (somewhere between x=0 and x=5 ), what is the radius of the representative slice? Note that the radius depends on the value of x.
