SUMMARY

The discussion centers on verifying mathematical solutions related to finding inflection points, concavity, and maximizing the volume of a cone generated by a right triangle. Users suggest uploading images of the problems for clarity and recommend using $\LaTeX$ for typing mathematical expressions. The correct formula for maximum volume is identified as $V = \dfrac{\pi}{3}(7h-h^3)$, with discussions on the ease of using trigonometric functions versus this method. Participants confirm the correctness of the inflection point and concavity signs for the second derivative.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of calculus concepts such as inflection points and concavity.
  • Familiarity with volume calculations for geometric shapes, specifically cones.
  • Basic knowledge of $\LaTeX$ for formatting mathematical expressions.
  • Ability to interpret mathematical images or diagrams.
NEXT STEPS
  • Learn how to use $\LaTeX$ for mathematical typesetting.
  • Study the derivation and application of the volume formula for cones, specifically $V = \dfrac{\pi}{3}(7h-h^3)$.
  • Explore techniques for finding inflection points and concavity in calculus.
  • Research methods for solving optimization problems in geometry.
USEFUL FOR

Students, educators, and anyone involved in calculus or mathematical problem-solving, particularly those seeking assistance with geometric optimization and calculus concepts.

I need someone to check my solutions if they are correct. And i need help about how to find normal equation of curve.(last picture)

Thanks for your time.

It's almost impossible to read those! Couldn't you type them in? For that matter why couldn't you check the answers yourself?

I don't know how to type them in pc, and i have bionic hand that's why i can't write good. Sorry.
 
Hi duffymercy, if you don't know how to type math expression/equation in $\LaTeX$, perhaps you want to check this https://mathhelpboards.com/threads/mhb-latex-guide-pdf.1142/ out. (Smile)

But, if you want to upload the picture of the math problem and your solution to the problem here so we could see if you have got a sound solution, you could help us out by uploading a picture that is visible to us, okay?(Nod)
 
I hope it's better

In the first picture we are looking for inflection point and concavity.
In the second picture we are looking for max volume of cone. We have hypotenuse value.

Can you post the question as well because without the question, it is hard for us to know what you are trying to solve...

In the first picture we are looking for inflection point and concavity of the curve.
In the second picture we are looking for max volume of cone that generated by right triangle rotated about one of it's legs. We have the hypotenuse value.
Third picture explains itself.
 
inflection point is correct, as is concavity for signs shown for $f''$

max volume is ok ... I would have used $V = \dfrac{\pi}{3}(7h-h^3)$ instead of the trig functions

inverse derivative value is correct

Thank you so much, I learned $$V=(π/3)*r^2\sqrt(7−r^2)\ $$ method after I post it here. But still I think trig functions was easier. This method is more complicated.

AH LOL, I just saw what you did there, if I would've do it for h instead of r, taking derivative could be easier...
work smart ... not hard. it explains everything...
