What is the area of the cross section of a sphere that is 3 units from the center of the sphere?
The cross section at this point forms a circle and its area is pi/32 which equals 9*pi square units. * * * * * Not quite. If the radius of the sphere is R units then the radius of the cross section is sqrt(R2 - 32) Therefore the cross sectional area is pi*(R2 - 32) square units.
What does cone cylinder and a sphere have in common?
A circular cross-section.
Can a triangular prism roll?
No, a triangular prism cannot roll because it does not have a circular cross-section like a cylinder or a sphere. Rolling requires a continuous curved surface that can rotate around an axis. A triangular prism has a polygonal cross-section with flat sides, so it would slide rather than roll.
How do you find the length of a prism with the cross-section and volume?
length = volume/cross-section
What is the vertical cross section of a cone?
The vertical cross section of a right vertical cone is a triangle if that cross section is taken from the vertex. Any other vertical cross section will reveal a hyperbola (with endpoints on the base of the cone). A link can be found below.

What is a circle called in a solid?

any cross section of a sphere is a circle.
What do spheres and cylinders have in common?
The cross section of a sphere is most often a circle. When the cross section is taken parallel to the base of a cylinder, it is also a circle.
