The diagram shows the cross-section of a hallow cone of height 30 cm and base radius
12 cm and a solid cylinder of radius r cm and height h cm. Both stand on a horizontal
surface with the cylinder inside the cone.
The upper circular edge of the cylinder is in contact with the cone.

(i) Express h in terms of r and hence show that the volume, V cm3, of the cylinder is
