Show that the height of the cylinder of ...

Show that the height of the cylinder of maximum volume that can be inscribed in a sphere of radius `R` is `(2R)/(sqrt(3))` . Also find the maximum volume.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`text(Radius of the sphere = R. Let x be the diameter of the cylinder and h be the height)`
`text(Then ) h^2+x^2=(2R)^2=4R^2`
`text(volume of cylinder = ) pi (radius)^2(height)` ...
