Question

Right cone has a base with diameter 16 units.

me volume of the cone is 320 cubic units.
What is the length of a segment drawn from the apex to the edge of the circular base?

Answer 1

The length of the segment is 8 units.

We can use the formula for the volume of a cone to calculate the height of the cone:

V = (1/3)πr^2h

320 = (1/3)π(8^2)h

h = 320/(1/3)(π)(64)

h = 8 units
