"Two great circles lying in planes that are perpendicular to each other are drawn on a wooden sphere of radius "a".
Part of the sphere is then shaved off in such a way that each cross section of the remaining solid that is perpendicular to the common diameter of the two great circles is a square whose vertices lie on these circles.
Find the volume of this solid."
I don't understand the geometry of the problem.
Can you please explain the problem and if possible draw a diagram for me ?
Thanks
