Question

Find the volume of a right circular cone that has a height of 11.9 ft and a base with a radius of 16.3 ft. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic foot.

Answer 1

3311.36ft^3

Explanation:

Given data

Height h= 11.9ft

Radius=16.3ft

The expression for the volume of a cone is given as

Volume= 1/3πr^2h

substitute

Volume=1/3*3.142*16.3^2*11.9

Volume= 1/3*3.142*265.69*11.9

Volume= 1/3*9934.095962

Volume=3311.36ft^3

Hence the volume is 3311.36ft^3
