Volume with a Common Cross-section Applet  

This applet allows the user to draw three dimensional solids with various cross section shapes, including shapes from standard calculus exercises such as squares, rectangles, equilateral triangles, right triangles, ellipses, semicircles and semi-ellipses. The user can see an arbitrary, individual slice or the entire solid dynamically generated.
