A solid wooden cylinder is of height h cm and radius r cm. A conical cavity of same height and the same radius is drill out of the solid cylinder.

Statement (1): The volume of the remaining wood = volume of the solid cylinder - volume of the cone drilled.

Statement (2): The volume of the remaining wood = πr2h - 13\dfrac{1}{3} πr2h = 23\dfrac{2}{3} πr2h

  1. Both the statement are true.

  2. Both the statement are false.

  3. Statement 1 is true, and statement 2 is false.

  4. Statement 1 is false, and statement 2 is true.

Answer

The volume of the remaining wood is the volume of the original solid cylinder minus the volume of the conical cavity drilled out.

Let radius and height of cylinder and conical cavity (both are equal) be r and h units.

Volume of the cylinder : πr2h

Volume of the cone : 13\dfrac{1}{3} πr2h

The volume of the remaining wood = Volume of the solid cylinder - Volume of the cone drilled.

= πr2h - 13\dfrac{1}{3} πr2h

= (113)\Big(1 - \dfrac{1}{3}\Big) πr2h

= (313)\Big(\dfrac{3 - 1}{3}\Big) πr2h

= 23\dfrac{2}{3} πr2h.

∴ Both the statements are true.

Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
