Question

A médium-sized paper cone has a diameter of 8 centimeters and a height of 10 centimeters. What is the volume of the cone?

Answer 1

40/3 pi

Explanation:

Volume of a cone = 1/3 *pi*h*r^2 , where h = height, and r = radius.

diameter = 2 radius, so radius = 8/2 = 4

The height = 10, so plug these values into the equation:

1/3 * pi * 10 * 4 =

40/3 pi
