Question

A cylinder and a cone both have radius of 6". The height of the cone is 12". The height of the cylinder is 6". Which has the greatest volume?

Answer 1

Answer:

cylinder has greatest volume

Step-by-step explanation:

solution

given,

radius of cylinder(r)=6cm

height of cylinder (h)=6cm

we know,

volume of cylinder=πr^2h

=22÷7×6×6×6

=4752÷7

=678.857cm^3

radius of cone(r)=6cm

height of cone(h)=12cm

we know,

volume of cone=1÷3πr^3

= 1÷3×22÷7×6×6×6

= 4752÷21

=226.2857cm^3

as a result,cylinder has greatest volume
