Question

H = 8 ft ; r = 5 ft

Find the volume of the cone. The dimensions are given below the figure. (Use the π key on your calculator and round to the nearest tenth.)

A. 209.4 ft.3
B. 628.2 ft.3
C. 335.1 ft.3
D. 523.6 ft.3

Answer 1

Formula to find the volume of the cone is:

Volume =
`\pi r^2(h)/(3)`

Where r = radius of the base of the cone

and h= height of the come.

Given, h = 8 and r = 5.

So, first step is to plug in these values in the above formula to get the volume. Therefore,

Volume =
`\pi *5^2*(8)/(3)`

= 3.14 * 25 * 2.66667 Since π = 3.14

= 209.4

Hence, the volume of cone is A: 209.4 ft³.

Hope this helps you!
