ANSWER:

9231.6 cm³

Explanation:

We know the diameter of the cone, the radius of the cone is half, therefore the radius would be equal to 14 cm (28/2).

The volume of the cone is calculated as follows:


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

we substitute each value and determine the volume, just like this:


\begin{gathered} V=(1)/(3)\cdot 3.14\cdot 14^2\cdot 45 \\ \\ V=9231.6\text{ cm}^3 \end{gathered}

The volume of the cone is equal to 9231.6 cm³
