Question

Find the volume of a cone with a base radius of 5 in. and a height of 12 in.

Answer 1

The volume of the cone is 311.1in³.

Explanation:

V = ⅓Bh where B = πr²

V = ⅓πr²h

V = ⅓(22/7)(5²)12

V = 0.33(3.142)(25)12

V = 311.1in³

Answer 2

V = 314

Explanation:

Volume of a cone:

V = πr²(h/3)

Given:

r = 5

h = 12

Work:

V = πr²(h/3)

V = 3.14(5²)(12/3)

V = 3.14(25)(4)

V = 314
