Question

What is the volume of a cone that is 19 feet tall and 27 feet in diameter.? Use 3.14 for pi. Round the answer to the nearest hundredth

Answer 1

The volume is 3624.35 ft³

Step-by-step explanation

The volume of a cone with height h and radius r is:

`V=(1)/(3)\pi r^2h`

In this problem h = 19ft and r = d/2 = 27ft/2 = 13.5ft. The volume of this cone is:

`\begin{gathered} V=(1)/(3)\cdot3.14\cdot13.5^2\cdot19 \\ V=3624.345ft^3\approx3624.35ft^3 \end{gathered}`
