In order to calculate the volume of the cone, we can use the following formula:


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

Where r is the radius and h is the height.

Since the diameter is 10 cm, the radius is half of it, so 5 cm, so we have:


\begin{gathered} V=(1)/(3)\pi\cdot5^2\cdot6 \\ V=157 \end{gathered}

So the volume of the cone is 157 cm³.
