Question

Find the volume of a right circular cone that has a height of 2.3 in and a base with a diameter of 3.6 in. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch.

Answer 1

Answer: 7.8in^3

Explanation:

Hey Guys here’s the real answer

Answer 2

V = 7.81 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation

The formula for right circular cone is

V = πr^2 h/3

V = volume of the cone

π - pie

r = radius of the cone

h = height of the cone

We are provided with

h = 2.3in

d = 3.6in

π = 22/7

First, we calculate the radius

d = 2r

r = d/2

r = 3.6/2

r = 1.8

Then we can use the formula

V = πr^2h/3

V = 22/7 * 1.8^2 * 2.3/3

V = 3.142 * 3.27 * 0.767

V = 7.80812136 cubic inches

According to the question, we are asked to round off to nearest tenth cubic inches

V = 7.81 cubic inches
