Measuring the liquid in a horizontal tank 2012-02-28
From Philip:
I have a steel gas tank that is 3' dia X 5' length. The total volume is 1000 litres. But how much is left when I use a stick and measure 6" from the bottom or 12" or 24" ?? Is there a formula to use for this task?

Thanks.

Geometry Related Careers 2011-09-01
From Richard:
Good morning,

I am hoping to find a list of careers that would relate to geometric constructions and tessellations.

I have searched the internet some and some of the sites I have found are a bit questionable or dated. Are there sites that Math Central would recommend?

I could not find anything when I did a search on the site.

Thanks in advance,

RVD
