Answer :D

The volume of the cone is
26^{}
cm^(3)

Question explanation:

Okay, so, we know that.

The volume of a cylinder is equal to:


V^{}
=
\pi
r^(2)
h

In this problem, we have that:


V
=
78
cm^(3)

So:


78 =
\pi
r^(2)
h
=
equation
A

The volume of a cone with the same radius and height is equal to


V =
(1)/(3)
(\pi r^(2) h)
= equation
B

Substitute equation A in equation B


V = (1)/(3) (78)


V = 26^{}
cm^(3)

Answer:Volume of cylinder V= bh= 78 cm^3,


where b is area of base(circle). Then volume of cone = 1/3bh =1/3*78 = 26 cm^3Upvote•0Downvote Add comment
