Answer:
32\pi cubic units.

Explanation:

You can use this formula for calculate the volume of a cone:


V_(cone)=(1)/(3)\pi r^2h

Where "r" is the radius and "h" is the height.

You know that the diameter of the base of the cone measures 8 units, then, the radius can be found by dividing the diameter by 2:


r=(8units)/(2)\\\\r=4units

Since you already know that height and the radius, you can substitute them into the formula. Then, the volume of this cone is:


V_(cone)=(1)/(3)\pi (4units)^2(6units)


V_(cone)=32\pi \ units^3
