Step-by-step explanation

The formula to find the volume of a cone is:


\begin{gathered} V=(1)/(3)\pi r^2h \\ \text{ Where} \\ r\text{ is the radius of the base} \\ h\text{ is the height} \end{gathered}

So, we have:


\begin{gathered} r=5cm \\ h=21cm \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} V=(1)/(3)\pi r^(2)h \\ V=(1)/(3)\pi(5cm)^(2)(21cm) \\ V=(1)/(3)\pi(525cm^3) \\ V=(525\pi)/(3)cm^3 \\ V=175\pi cm^3 \end{gathered}

Answer

C 175π
