The volume removed from the original right cone of vertical height H & base radius R cut by a plane parallel to the symmetrical axis at a distance x is given by the most Generalized Formula
V r e m o v e d = 3 R H ( R 3 cos − 1 ( R x ) − 2 R x R 2 − x 2 + x 3 ln ( x R + R 2 − x 2 ) )
substituting the corresponding values, H = 4 0 , R = 2 0 , x = 1 0 , one should get
V r e m o v e d = 3 ⋅ 2 0 4 0 ( 2 0 3 cos − 1 ( 2 0 1 0 ) − 2 ⋅ 2 0 ⋅ 1 0 x 2 0 2 − 1 0 2 + 1 0 3 ln ( 1 0 2 0 + 2 0 2 − 1 0 2 ) ) ≈ 1 8 4 4 . 2 2 3 3 8 4
hence, the volume of cut cone
V l e f t = 3 1 π R 2 H − V r e m o v e d = 3 1 π ( 2 0 ) 2 1 0 − 1 8 4 4 . 2 2 3 3 8 4 ≈ 1 4 9 1 0 . 9 3 7 4 4 c m 3

If z is 2 1 of the vertical axis, then we integrate via slices parallel to the base
1 6 9 ( 3 1 4 0 ⋅ π ⋅ 2 0 2 ) + 2 ∫ 0 1 0 ( 1 0 ( 2 0 − z ) 2 − 1 0 2 + ( 2 0 − z ) 2 arcsin ( 2 0 − z 1 0 ) ) d z = 1 4 9 1 0 . 9 3 7 4 . . .
The volume of the top half of the cone is 8 1 of the whole cone, while the volume of half of the conical frustum is 1 6 7 of the whole cone. Add both to get 1 6 9 , and then add that integrated volume.
