Answer:

268.0 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

refer to attached graphic as reference

volume of cone, V = (1/3) πr²h

in our case, we are given r = 4" and h = 16"

substituting this into equation:

V = (1/3) πr²h

= (1/3) ·(3.14) · (4)²· (16)

= 267.94667 in²

= 268.0 in² (nearest tenth)

Answer:

V = 267.78 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of cone formula:

V= (Pi r^2) h/3

V = (3.14 4^2) 16/3

V = (50.24) 5.33

V = 267.78 square inches
