 QUESTION
Two planes cut a wedge out of a cylindrical log of radius 4". One is
perpendicular to the cylinder's axis, and the other intersects the first
at an angle of 30 degrees along the diameter of the cylinder. Find
the volume of the cylindrical wedge using the prismatoid formula.

Formula of Prismatoid:
V = h/6(A1 + A2 + 4Am)
