Question

Pleaseeee help:) what is the approximate volume of this cone? use 3.14 for pi

Answer 1

The approximate volume of the cone is 1206.37 cubic centimeters.

To find the volume of a cone, we use the equation

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

• V = volume
• r = radius
• h = height

From the diagram, we know that the radius of the cone is 12 centimeters, and the height of the cone is 8 centimeters.

Additionally, the problem states to use 3.14 for pi.

`r=12\\h=8\\\pi\approx3.14`

So, to find the volume of the cone, we substitute the values with its corresponding variable within the equation for the volume of a cone.

`V = (3.14)(12)^2((8))/(3)\\\\V=1206.37`
