Question

Please help out with this geometry homework I was assigned. And what formula do I use?

Answer 1

Answer:

$V_{cone} \approx 1,178.97 \: {in}^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of cone = 16 in

Radius of cone r = 16/2 = 8 in

Height of cone h = 17.6 in

$V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3} \pi {r}^{2}h \\ \\ V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times {(8)}^{2} \times 17.6 \\ \\ V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3} \times 3,536.896 \\ \\ V_{cone} = 1,178.96533 \\ \\ V_{cone} \approx 1,178.97 \: {in}^{3}$
