Problem
The region consisting of all points in three-dimensional space within 
units of line segment 
has volume 
. What is the length 
?
Solution
Let the length be 
. Then, we see that the region is just the union of the cylinder with central axis and radius and the two hemispheres connected to each face of the cylinder (also with radius ). Thus the volume is
