*NOTE.-α(Tri+r)=the volume of two cylinders whose bases are the upper and lower bases of the segment and whose altitude is half the altitude of the segment. 3 is the volume of a sphere whose diameter is the altitude of the segment. Hence the volume of a segment of a sphere of two bases is equivalent to the volume of two cylinders whose bases are the upper and lower bases respectively of the segment and whose common altitude is the altitude of the segment, plus the volume of a sphere whose diameter is the altitude of the segment.

For a demonstration of this and the preceding formula, see Wentworth's Plane and Solid Geometry, Bk. IX., Prob. XXXII.
