the volume of a cone is given to us through the formula:

pi x radius squared x height
----------------------------------------

you need to find the radius which is half the diameter, so 5 inches

the height is given, 10 inches

sub the values into the formula

π x r^2 x h
--------------
3

π x 5^2 x 10
= -----------------
3

= 261.8 inches cubed (to 1 dp)
