Homework Statement
A bowl has radius of 16 cm at the top of it (the largest diameter) and diameter of 8 cm at the bottom of it (the smallest diameter). Find the diameter at position:
a. 1/4 height
b. 1/2 height
c. 3/4 height
Homework Equations
not sure, maybe:
trigonometry
similarity
The Attempt at a Solution
There is no picture attached to the question so I assume that the bowl has circular side, not a straight one like plastic cup (hope I explain what I meant clear enough).
So, how to find the radius? I think trigonometry and similarity can't be used because of the circular side...
Thanks
