a cone is circumscribed to a sphere of radius r. show that volume of the cone is minimum if its altitude is 4r and its semivertical angle is sin inverse 1/3


Let the sphere of radius be a , cone radius be r and height be h.
 Here the triangle ABC , right angled at C and ADE is right angled at D.
Both are similar triangle.



Hope you have got it.
