Volume of a Cone as the Limit of Cylinders by RRamanujam
Loading the math board and drawing, please wait…
This example derives the volume of a cone as the limit of a sequence of cylinders. Key mathematical concepts include integral calculus. The Sequence command is used to construct the sequence of cylinders.
GeoGebra Commands & Parameters
Sequence(Cylinder[(0, 0, (i * h / n)), (0, 0, ((i + 1) * h / n)), ((n - i) * r / n)], i, 0, n - 1) → list2
AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a cone and represent its volume as the limit of a sequence of cylinders. First, create a sequence of cylinders with the base radius linearly changing from 0 to the cone's base radius, and the height linearly changing from 0 to the cone's height, with a sequence length of n.
