Question

Gretchen make a paper cone to hold a gift for a friend the paper cone was 10 inches high and had a radius of 4 inches find the volume of the paper cone to the nearest tenth use 3.14 for pi

Answer 1

Answer:
`167.5\ in.^3`

Explanation:

Given

Height of paper cone
`h=10\ in.`

Radius of cone
`r=4\ in.`

The volume of the cone is given by

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

Insert the values

`\Rightarrow V=(1)/(3)* 3.14* 4^2* 10\\\\\Rightarrow V=167.5\ in.^3`

Thus, the volume of the cone is
`167.5\ in.^3`
