The code on a new phone 2018-02-02
From Maria:
Hi -
My husband gave me a new Samsung Galaxy mobile for out anniversaire gift. He set me a challenge which I have to solve before I can use the Phone. He has set the pin code with numbers 4, 7 and 0 and created a four digit code with the said numbers. Is there a way I can somehow list all possible combinations and try them all? Thanks!

The surface area of a circular dome 2014-04-10
From Shafiqah:
Is this a dome's surface area formula??
{{2 × π r × h square units}}
Is the surface area of the floor for the dome is calculate too in this formula?

Thanks for answering. =)

Two great circles 2011-10-06
From Jean:
"Two great circles lying in planes that are perpendicular to each other are drawn on a wooden sphere of radius "a". Part of the sphere is then shaved off in such a way that each cross section of the remaining solid that is perpendicular to the common diameter of the two great circles is a square whose vertices lie on these circles. Find the volume of this solid."

I don't understand the geometry of the problem. Can you please explain the problem and if possible draw a diagram for me ?

Surface area of a dome 2009-09-16
From Charlie:
Why is the calculation for the surface area of a domed tank less than the surface area of a flat top tank. Using domed tank formula 2*pi*r(r-(r-dome ht) works out to be less surface area than a flat top tank area formula pi*r x r, Shouldn't the dome have more surface area than the flat surface ?

A spherical dome 2009-08-03
From Eric:
I have recently been asked to resurface a dome sculpture for my local council but i'm having problems working out the area. Here are the dimensions. The height of the dome is 3m from the ground to the top of the arc. The arc itself from the ground rising up to the 3m point and back down, is 10m. The dome is 7m wide from one side to the other through the centre, at ground level.
I hope there is enough detail here. It's been a long time since i was in a maths class. Thank you, hope to here from you soon!

Two circles on a dome 2009-07-01
From Beth:
My question is related to a dome I would like to construct, for which I know the circumference of the base: 120ft. I now need to figure out the diameters of two smaller circles, one at 20ft along the arc of the dome form the ground, and the other at 30ft along the arc. Assuming a true hemisphere, or 180 degrees total arc, how can I calculate these two circumferences?

A dome with a square base 2006-10-17
From Danielle:
I need to know how to calculate the area of a dome that has a square base. In order to insulate the room I need to find the area of it but I am not sure how to do so because there is no formula for domes with square bases. Basically, the floor has 4 corners but the ceiling is dome shaped starting directly from the floor.
