Not illustrated. 1897 edition. Excerpt: ...volume of steam in the large cylinder. Ans. (c) Ratio: 1Z1.'43ti,1 or 2.522: 1. Ans. (202) Let the equilateral triangle A BC, Fig. 10, rep3 resent the base of the pyramid. By rule 50, Art. 385, the altitude A D of the triangle: 4/ 10'--5 = 4/% = 8.6602 in., and according to. rule 51, Art. 386, the area A of the triangle:: 43.301 sq. in. D 0. 2 FIG. 10. Using rule 65, Art. 423, volume of pyramid: area of base altitude::144.336 cu. in. Ans. (203) In Fig. 11, let OHbe the altitude and OE the slant height of the pyramid. FIG. 11. (204) The area of the convex surface = circumference 1. of base 5 slant height: 18.8496 X 1; = 94.248 sq. in. (See rule 64, Art. 422.) The area of the entire surface = 94.248 sq. in.--the area of the base. The diameter.84. of the base = = 6 in.'; hence, the area of the base = 6' X-7854 = 28.2744 (rules 56 and 58, Arts. 403 and 405); therefore, the area of the entire surface F 94.248 + (206) The vat has the form of an inverted frustum of a pyramid. Area of larger base = 15' 225 sq. ft.; area of smaller base = 12' 144 sq. ft. Hence, by rule 67, Art. 427, the contents of the vat in cubic feet: --11 11 11 (225---144+ 4/225x 144) E-=(369 + 180) X--3--= 549 X1,7 = 2,013 cu. ft. This should be reduced to cubic inches by multiplying by 1,728, the number of cubic inches in a cubic foot. 2,013 X 1,728: 3,478,464 cu. in. Since there are 231 cubic inches in a gallon, the number of gallons 3,478,464 _---15,058.29. Ans. (207) The pail is in the form of a frustum of a cone. Area of larger base _--_ 12' X.7854: 113.0976 cu. in. Area of smaller base = 63.6174 cu. in. Hence, the contents in that the vat will hold: cubic inches = The contents of the vat in cubic inches were found in the last example to be.
