Answer:
0.905 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Parameters given:
Volume of cone, V = 3.6 in³
Height of cone, h = 4.2 in
Although the diagram is not shown, this problem can be solved.
The volume of a cone is given as:
V = ⅓ * π * r² * h
r is the radius of the base of the cone
We can find r.
3.6 = ⅓ * π * r² * 4.2
3.6 = 4.399 * r²
=> r² = 3.6 / 4.399
r² = 0.8184
=> r = 0.905 in
The radius of the base of the cone is 0.905 in.
