Question

The diameter of a cone is 34 ft. the height is 16 ft what is the volume in cubic ft?

Answer 1

4,841.32 ft³.

Explanation:

Let’s assume that this is a right circular cone and that the radius of the cone is r.

For our problem, r = (1/2)d = (1/2)34 = 17.

The volume of the cone is:

V = (1/3)pi r^2 h, where r is the radius and h is the height.

So, V = (1/3)pi(17^2)16 = 4,841.32 ft³.

Answer 2

4842.24 cubic feet

Explanation:

Use the formula for the volume of a cone, V =
`\pi`r²
`(h)/(3)`

The diameter of the cone is 34 ft, so the radius is 17 ft.

Plug in the radius and height into the formula, and solve for the volume:

V =
`\pi`r²
`(h)/(3)`

V =
`\pi`(17)²
`(16)/(3)`

V =
`\pi`(289)
`(16)/(3)`

V = 4842.24

So, the volume of the cone is 4842.24 cubic feet
