Calculate the volume V of the portion to the right of the cross-section (the shaded area) when a right circular cone with radius R and base angle δ is cut by a plane intersecting the base at an angle γ.
The formula provided here applies only when the cut angle γ is smaller than the base angle δ. Since the formula differs under other conditions, it is provided separately in a different program.
[Note] 1. If the cut angle γ is negative, the calculated volume V will be negative; therefore, use the absolute value. 2. When γ = 0, the calculation will result in an error, but it is self-evident that the volume V is 0 in that case.
