Question

What is the volume of the cone

Answer 1

The volume of this cone would be approximately equal to 2787.64
`yd.^2`.

Explanation:

The formula used to calculate the volume of a cone is
`\pi r^2*(h)/(3)` where
`r` represents the radius of the circle at the base of the cone, and
`h` represents the vertical height of the cone. In this case,
`r` equals the diameter of the base divided by two, which is
`(22)/(2)` or 11 yards; and
`h` is equivalent to 22 yards. Insert these values into the formula and you'll get that the volume of this cone is equal to
`11^2*\pi*(22)/(3) = 121\pi * (22)/(3)` ≈ 2787.64
`yd.^2`, so that is the correct answer.
