Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

We are given a cone with the following dimensions;


\begin{gathered} Dimensions: \\ Radius=6ft \\ Height=15ft \end{gathered}

Required;

We are required to calculate the volume of the cone with the given dimensions.

Step-by-step solution;

To solve this problem, we would take note of the formula of the volume of a cone;


\begin{gathered} Volume\text{ }of\text{ }a\text{ }cone: \\ Vol=(\pi r^2h)/(3) \end{gathered}

We can now substitute and we'll have;


Vol=(3.14*6^2*15)/(3)
Vol=3.14*36*5
Vol=565.2

Therefore, the volume of the cone is,

ANSWER:


Volume=565.2ft^3
