A right triangle ABC with sides 5 cm, 12 cm, and 13 cm is revolved about the side 12 cm. Find the volume of the solid so obtained.
Concept Used: Volume of cone ![]()
Where r = radius of the cone and h = height of the cone.
Given: Dimensions of a right-angled triangle.
Hypotenuse = 13 cm
Base = 5 cm
Perpendicular = 12 cm
Explanation:
When right-angled ΔABC is revolved about its side 12 cm then a cone is formed having
Height (h) = 12 cm
Radius (r) = 5 cm
Slant height (l) = 13 cm

Volume ![]()
![]()
= 100 π cm3
Hence, the volume of the figure is 100 π cm3.
