Q.	If a right angled triangle is made to revolute about one of its perpendicular sides the solid formed is
A.	cube
B.	triangular prism
C.	cone
D.	cylinder
Answer» C. cone
Explanation: a right circular cone is a solid generated by the revolution of a right angled triangle about one of its perpendicular sides which is fixed. it has one circular base and one vertex. its axis joins the vertex to center of circle (base) to which it is perpendicular.
