Let the radius of the larger sphere be $r$, so we have \[\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3= 8\cdot 9^2\cdot 3\pi .\] Solving for $r$ yields \[r^3 =2\cdot 9^3 \Rightarrow r = 9\sqrt[3]... |

human | Quadrilateral $ABCD$ has right angles at $B$ and $D$, and $AC=3$. If $ABCD$ has two sides with distinct integer lengths, then what is the area of $ABCD$? Express your answer in simplest radical form. |
gpt | Triangles $\triangle ABC$ and $\triangle ADC$ are both right and share hypotenuse $AC$, which has length $3$. Thus we have $$AB^2+BC^2 = AD^2+DC^2 = 3^2 = 9.$$The only possible integer values for $AB,$ $BC,$ $AD,$ or $DC$ are $1$ and $2$. Thus we may assume that one leg of $\triangle ABC$ has length $1$ and one leg of ... |
human | The water tank in the diagram below is in the shape of an inverted right circular cone. The radius of its base is 16 feet, and its height is 96 feet. The water in the tank is $25\%$ of the tank's capacity. The height of the water in the tank can be written in the form $a\sqrt[3]{b}$, where $a$ and $b$ are positive int... |
gpt | The water in the tank fills a cone, which we will refer to as the water cone, that is similar to the cone-shaped tank itself. Let the scale factor between the water cone and tank be $x$, so the height of the water cone is $96x$ feet and the radius of the water cone is $16x$ feet. It follows that the volume of the wat... |

human | There are two concentric spheres of radii 3 units and 6 units. What is the volume, in cubic units, of the region within the larger sphere and not within the smaller sphere? Express your answer in terms of $\pi$. |
gpt | The smaller one has volume $\frac43\cdot27\pi=36\pi$ cubic units and the larger one $\frac43\cdot216\pi=288\pi$ cubic units. The volume between them is the difference of their volumes, or $288\pi-36\pi=\boxed{252\pi}$ cubic units. |

gpt | Let the side length of the square be $x$. The triangle has $\frac{1}{2} x$ as both its base and height. Therefore, its area is $\frac{1}{8} x^2$, and since the area of the square is $x^2$, the shaded area is $\boxed{\frac{7}{8}}$ of the total. |

gpt | Each small congruent right triangle in the diagram has the same area, which we will call $K$. Since $\triangle ABG$ consists of two small triangles, $[\triangle ABG]= 2K$.

Define $D$ to be the foot of the perpendicular from $B$ to side $AC$. Because angle $A$ measures 45 degrees and angle $ADB$ is a right angle, triangle $ADB$ is a 45-45-90 triangle. Since the... |

gpt | We can begin by calculating the volume of the liquid in the glass. Since the glass is half full, the portion filled with liquid has height 3 inches. The volume will be $\pi r^2 h=\pi\cdot 1^2 \cdot 3 = 3\pi$. Now, since the ratio of lemon juice to water is 1:11, the ratio of lemon juice to the liquid will be 1:(1+11... |
