Question

A cone has a height of 15 inches and a radius of 12 inches. What is its volume?

Answer 1

V ≈ 7186 in³

Explanation:

The volume of a cone of base radius r and height h is V = (1/3)(π)(r^2)(h).

When h = 15 in and r = 12 in, the volume of the cone is

V = (1/3)(π)(12 in)²·(15 in), or approximately V ≈ 7186 in³
