Question

Please help out with this geometry homework I was assigned. And what formula do I use?

Answer 1

`V_(cone) \approx 1,178.97 \: {in}^(3)`

Explanation:

Diameter of cone = 16 in

Radius of cone r = 16/2 = 8 in

Height of cone h = 17.6 in

`V_(cone) = (1)/(3) \pi {r}^(2)h \\ \\ V_(cone) = (1)/(3) * 3.14 * {(8)}^(2) * 17.6 \\ \\ V_(cone) = (1)/(3) * 3,536.896 \\ \\ V_(cone) = 1,178.96533 \\ \\ V_(cone) \approx 1,178.97 \: {in}^(3) \\`
