Question

Fred purchased a cone filled with cinnamon pieces. The cone is 7 inches tall and has a diameter of 2. How many cubic inches does the cone hold? Leave your answer in terms of pi

Answer 1

V = 9.33 π m³

Explanation:

Given: The cone is 7 inches tall and has a diameter of 2

To find: How many cubic inches the cone can hold

Formula: The formula for the volume of a cone is V =
`(1)/(3) h\pi r`².

Solution: A cone is a solid that has a circular base and a single vertex. To calculate its volume you need to multiply the base area

(area of a circle: π × r²) by height and by
`(1)/(3)`:

volume = (
`(1)/(3)`) × π × r² × h.

In terms of pi V = 9.33 π m³
