Answer:

The cone volume that has a diameter of 20cm and a height of 12cm is 5,026.548246 cm^3 or 5,027 cm^3

Make sure to round your answer to the nearest significant figure that you're asked.

Explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cone is (height x π x (diameter / 2)^2)/3, where (diameter / 2) is the radius of the base (d - 2 x r), so another way to write it is (height x π x radius^2) / 3
