Question 10

The diagram shows two water containers. One is a cuboid and one is a cylinder.

Figure for question 10
Question 10, shown as an image

The cuboid measures 35 cm by 28 cm by 20 cm The surface of the water in the cuboid is 9 cm above the base of the cuboid.

The cylinder has a radius of 10 cm and a height of 33 cm The cylinder is completely full of water.

Izzy is going to pour all the water from the cylinder into the cuboid.

Show that the cuboid will not be completely full of water.
