Question

A circular opening of an ice cream cone has a diameter of 23 centimeters. The height of the cone is 17 centimeters, what is the

volume of the cone?

round to hundredth decimals if necessary.

Answer 1

Answer:
`2355.31\ cm^3`

Explanation:

Given

diameter of the cone is
`d=23\ cm\quad [r=(d)/(2)=11.5\ cm]`

The height of the cone is
`h=17\ cm`

The volume of a cone is
`V=(1)/(3)\pi r^2h`

Insert the values

`\Rightarrow V=(1)/(3)* (22)/(7)* 11.5^2* 17=2355.309\\\\\Rightarrow V\approx 2355.31\ cm^3`

Thus, the volume of the cone is
`2355.31\ cm^3`
