Answer:

The volume of cone -shaped tent is 226.08 cubic ft.

Explanation:

Given : A cone-shaped tent has a diameter of 12 ft and a height of 6 ft.

To find : What is the volume of the tent?

Solution : The formula of volume of cone is


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

where, r is the radius

we have given diameter = 12 =2r

r=6 ft

h is the height h=6 ft


\pi =3.14

Substitute the value in the formula,


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


V=(1)/(3)* (3.14)* 6^(2)* 6


V=(1)/(3)* 3.14* 36* 6


V=226.08 ft^3

Therefore, The volume of cone is 226.08 cubic ft.
