Maximum-volume cone A cone is constructed by cutting a sector from a circular sheet of metal with radius 20. The cut sheet is then folded up and welded (see figure). Find the radius and height of the cone with maximum volume that can be formed in this way. <IMAGE>

Start by understanding the relationship between the original circle and the cone. The radius of the original circle is 20, and the arc length of the sector becomes the circumference of the base of the cone.
Let the angle of the sector be θ (in radians). The arc length of the sector is given by the formula: arc length = 20θ. This arc length is equal to the circumference of the base of the cone, which is 2πr, where r is the radius of the cone's base.
Set up the equation for the circumference: 20θ = 2πr. Solve for r in terms of θ: r = (20θ)/(2π).
The slant height of the cone is the radius of the original circle, which is 20. Use the Pythagorean theorem to express the height h of the cone in terms of r and the slant height: h = √(20² - r²).
The volume V of the cone is given by the formula: V = (1/3)πr²h. Substitute the expressions for r and h in terms of θ into this volume formula. Differentiate the volume with respect to θ, set the derivative equal to zero, and solve for θ to find the angle that maximizes the volume. Use this θ to find the corresponding r and h.

Volume of a Cone

The volume of a cone is calculated using the formula V = (1/3)πr²h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height. Understanding this formula is crucial for determining how changes in the radius and height affect the overall volume of the cone formed from the sector.

Optimization

Optimization in calculus involves finding the maximum or minimum values of a function. In this context, we need to maximize the volume of the cone by adjusting the radius and height, which requires setting up a function and using techniques such as differentiation to find critical points.

Geometric Relationships

Geometric relationships help us understand how the dimensions of the cone relate to the original circular sector. Specifically, the radius of the base of the cone and the height are influenced by the angle of the sector cut from the circle, which must be considered when formulating the volume equation.
