Answer:

The closest measurement to the volume of hat is 84.82 in.³.

Explanation:

Given:

The dimensions of hat are height(h) 9 inches and diameter(d) 6 inches.

Now, to find the volume of cone:

Putting the formula
(1)/(3)\pi r^(2)h.

Radius(r) is not given, finding the radius:

Radius(r)=half of the diameter(d)


r=(d)/(2)


r=(6)/(2)


r=3.

Then,
(1)/(3)\pi r^(2)h

=
(1)/(3)*\pi *3^(2)*9

=
(1)/(3)*3.14*9*9 (
\pi =3.14)

=
(1)/(3) *254.34

=
(254.34)/(3)

=
84.78 in.³

So, the volume is 84.78 in.³ .

Therefore, the closest measurement to the volume of hat is 84.82 in.³.
