a hemisphere
a hemisphere

a cylinder

Answer 1

When you rotate a quarter circle about the x-axis, you form a three-dimensional object known as a **cone**. The quarter circle, being a quarter of the plane, creates a conical shape when revolved around the x-axis. Therefore, the correct response is:

**a cone**
