Two vases
Michaela has two vases in her collection. The first vase has the shape of a cone with a base diameter of d = 20 cm; the second vase has the shape of a truncated cone with a lower base of d1 = 25 cm and a diameter of the upper base d2 = 15 cm. Which vase can hold more water if the height of both vases is 0.5 m?
