Question

Find the volume of the cone round your answer to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

Answer:

209.43951 round to the nearest tenth is 209.44

Step-by-step explanation:

A cone with a base radius of 5 units and a height of 8 units has a volume of 209.44 cubed units.

If a cone has a flat bottom, meaning the height and radius meet at right angles, then this formula can be used to find of volume ('V') of that cone (also know as a right circular cone):

V = 1/3(PI*r squared * h )

The volume of a cone can be calculated by taking one-third of the result of the radius squared, multiplied by the height, multiplied by the mathematical constant pi.

Here is a step-by-step case that illustrates how to find to volume of a cone with a radius of 2 feet and a height of 3 feet. Note that in order to save space (and because pi cannot be determine precisely) a limited number of decimal places are used, the symbol ~ denotes that this answer is an approximation.

V = 1/3(pi * r^2 * h)

= 1/3(pi * 2^2 * 3)

= 1/3(pi * 12)

= 1/3(37.7)

~ 12.6 cubic feet
