Guys please help me with this:

1) Show that the slice z=c of the sphere x² + y² + z² =1 has the same area as the slice z=c of the cylinder x² + y² =1 outside the cone x² + y² = z².

2) Deduce from the previous problem, and the known volume of the cone, that the volume of the sphere is 2/3 the volume of the circumscribing cylinder

Thanks in advance

Calculate the areas of those two shapes, then show that their equations are equal. To find the area between the cone and cylinder, find them both and subtract.
