Question

A cake decorator rolls a piece of stiff paper to form a cone. She cuts off the tip of the cone and uses it as a funnel to pour decorative sprinkles into small containers. The cone has a radius of 66 cm and a height of 18 cm. What is the volume of the cone before the end is cut off?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Use the formula for volume of a cone

V = 1/3 pi r^2 (h)

V = 1/3 pi 66^2 (18)

V= 1/3 pi 4356(18)

V = 1/3 pi 78408

V = 1/3 264,201.12

V = 82,067.04cm^3
