The angles of a triangle are in the ratio 1:2:3. If its hypotenuse is 12cm, find the volume of the double cone formed by revolution of triangle about its hypotenuse.

Pls help me!

x + 2x + 3 x = 180
so
x = 30
we are talking about a 30, 60, 90 triangle
sides are 6 and 6 sqrt 3

bottom cone (I have the 6 side down)
hypotenuse is 6
length along axis = 6 sin 30 = 6/2 = 3
length perp to axis = 3 sqrt 3
volume of bottom cone
= (1/3) 3 (pi) (3 sqrt3)^2
= pi (9*3) = 27 pi

top cone
length along axis = 12-3 = 9
same 3 sqrt 3 perp to axis
Vol = (1/3)(9)(3 sqrt 3)^2
= 81 pi

total = (27+81)pi = 108 pi
so I have a cone
