The volume of the cone is approximately 211.06 cubic meters.

Why is that?

Well, the formula for the volume of a cone is:

V = (1/3)πr^2h


where:

  • V is the volume of the cone
  • π is pi (approximately 3.14159)
  • r is the radius of the base of the cone
  • h is the height of the cone


Substituting the given values, we get:V = (1/3)π(4.5m)^2(10m)

V = (1/3)π(20.25m^2)(10m)

V = (1/3)π(202.5m^3)

V = 67.5π


Using a calculator, we get:

V ≈ 211.06 cubic meters


Therefore, the volume of the cone is approximately 211.06 cubic meters.
