A birthday cake is in the shape of a cylinder. There are two layers of cake and one layer of icing. Each layer of cake has radius 10 cm and height 3 cm. The icing, between the two layers of cake, has radius 10cm and height 12mm.
- (a)[Figure 8.1] Calculate the volume of icing in the birthday cake. Give your answer in cm³.[2]
- (b)The top and curved surface of the birthday cake are now covered with chocolate. Calculate the area of the birthday cake that is covered with chocolate.[3]
- (c)[Figure 8.2] Anil has a slice of this chocolate-covered birthday cake. His slice is a prism of height 7.5 cm. The top of the cake is a sector, radius 10.3 cm and angle x°. The volume of his slice is 200 cm³. Calculate the value of x.[3]
