| Theorem of Pappus: Continued |
Soroban noticed that the final answer to last week's problem, 9π2 + 32/3π2 + 32, is very close to 2, which is the length of the rectangle. (You may want to look over last week's solution.)
Is there some height h of a rectangle of length 2 such that a semi-circular "cap" will move its centroid exactly one unit to the right? If so, find it.
