Cavalieri's principle is used...
to compare the volumes of solids
to find pime numbers less than 2971
to find all prime numbers from interwal
to check if given number is prime or not
In geometry, Cavalieri's principle, a modern implementation of the method of indivisibles, named after Bonaventura Cavalieri, is in 3-dimensional case: Suppose two regions in three-space (solids) are included between two parallel planes. If every plane parallel to these two planes intersects both regions in cross-sections of equal area, then the two regions have equal volumes.
