An ''arrinder'' is the [[surface of revolution]] of an [[arrow]], just as a [[cone]] is the surface of revolution of a [[triangle]]. It can also be thought of as a cone with a smaller cone removed from the base. As such, this shape's [[volume]] is the difference between the volume of the two aforementioned cones.

A cone is a special case of a pyramid where the base is a circle.

The cone is one of the few curved polyhedra that satisfy Euler's F + V = E + 2.

Equations

  • Variables:
r ⇒ radius of base of cone
h ⇒ height of cone
  • All points (x, y, z) that lie on the surface of a cone will satisfy the following equations:
Unknown
  • All points (x, y, z) that lie on the edges of a cone will satisfy the following equations:
x2 + y2 = r2
z = 0
total edge length = 2πr
surface area = πr2 + πrsqrt(h2 + r2)
volume = πr2h3-1
[!x,!y] ⇒ Unknown
[!z] ⇒ circle of radius (r-rnh-1)

Arrinder

An arrinder is the surface of revolution of an arrow, just as a cone is the surface of revolution of a triangle. It can also be thought of as a cone with a smaller cone removed from the base. As such, this shape's volume is the difference between the volume of the two aforementioned cones.
