Find the volume V of the portion on the right side of the cross-section (the shaded area) when a right circular cone with radius R and base angle δ is cut vertically (parallel to the central axis).
The cutting position is expressed as an angle Θ [°]. It can be any value within the full range (0°–180°).
The cutting angle γ is fixed at 90 [°]. No input is required.

[Other Equivalent Programs] The same calculations as this program can be performed on the high-precision calculation website at
https://keisan.site/exec/system/14748552221122 “Mathematics/Physics: Volume/Surface Area ⇒ Volume of a Straight Cone with a Portion Removed.”At first glance, the formula presented there may appear completely different from the one introduced in this program, but upon further manipulation, it becomes clear that they are actually identical. However, because that site uses the notation “inverse hyperbolic functions,” there is a limitation: if the cut-off portion exceeds half of the cone, an error occurs and the calculation cannot be performed.Since this program does not have that constraint, it offers greater flexibility: you can cut the cone at any point between 0 and π.
