Question

Find the volume of a cone with radius 12 yd and height 4 yd. Use 3.14 for π. Compare the volumes of the two cones. Use pencil and paper. Pick different values for the radius and height and calculate the volume of two cones like the ones described here. Compare the volumes of these cones.

Answer 1

Volume is 602.88

Explanation:

Here, we are asked to

calculate the volume of the cone.

Mathematically, to do this, we need to use the formula for finding the volume of cone= 1/3 * pi *r^2 * h

now we know that radius is 12 yards and height 4 yards. Plugging these values we have;

V = 1/3 * 3.14 * 12^2 * 4

V = 602.88 inches^3
