Q1 2023 AMC 12B Problems/Problem 21
A lampshade is made in the form of the lateral surface of the frustum of a right circular cone. The height of the frustum is
inches, its top diameter is
inches, and its bottom diameter is
inches. A bug is at the bottom of the lampshade and there is a glob of honey on the top edge of the lampshade at the spot farthest from the bug. The bug wants to crawl to the honey, but it must stay on the surface of the lampshade. What is the length in inches of its shortest path to the honey?

Q2 2012 AMC 10B Problems/Problem 17
Jesse cuts a circular paper disk of radius 12 along two radii to form two sectors, the smaller having a central angle of 120 degrees. He makes two circular cones, using each sector to form the lateral surface of a cone. What is the ratio of the volume of the smaller cone to that of the larger?

Q3 2020 AMC 10B Problems/Problem 10
A three-quarter sector of a circle of radius
inches together with its interior can be rolled up to form the lateral surface area of a right circular cone by taping together along the two radii shown. What is the volume of the cone in cubic inches?

Q4 2004 AIME II Problems/Problem 11
A right circular cone has a base with radius
and height
A fly starts at a point on the surface of the cone whose distance from the vertex of the cone is
, and crawls along the surface of the cone to a point on the exact opposite side of the cone whose distance from the vertex is
Find the least distance that the fly could have crawled.
Q5 2004 AIME I Problems/Problem 11
A solid in the shape of a right circular cone is 4 inches tall and its base has a 3-inch radius. The entire surface of the cone, including its base, is painted. A plane parallel to the base of the cone divides the cone into two solids, a smaller cone-shaped solid
and a frustum-shaped solid
in such a way that the ratio between the areas of the painted surfaces of
and
and the ratio between the volumes of
and
are both equal to
. Given that
where
and
are relatively prime positive integers, find ![]()
