Question

What is the volume of the cone shown below? round to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

`\text{volume of a cone=}(1)/(3)\text{ }\pi r^2h`

Therefore,

`\begin{gathered} r=(2)/(2)=1\text{ ft} \\ h=5\text{ ft} \end{gathered}`
`\begin{gathered} \text{volume}=(1)/(3)*3.14*1^2*5 \\ \text{volume}=(15.7)/(3) \\ \text{volume}=5.23333333333 \\ \text{volume}=5.2ft^3 \end{gathered}`
