Answer:

251.327 in^2

Explanation:

I looked up the equations and plugged in the numbers. The equation for a cylinder is pi × radius squared × height. The equation for the cone was pi × radius squared × the height divided by 3.

I plugged in the numbers and got these equations

Cylinder:


\pi * 4 {}^(2) * 5

Cone:


\pi * 4 {}^(2) * (15 / 3)

As you can see, if you simplify what's in the parentheses, 15÷3=5. The two equations are exactly the same. So are the volumes, so the cone and the cylinder have the exact same volume.
