Answer:

When a cone and cylinder have the same height and radius the cone will fit inside the cylinder. The volume of the cone will be one-third that of the cylinder. If the radius or height are different, then there is no relationship between them.

Answer:

The volume of a cone is 1/3 that of a cylinder.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is
V=\pi r^(2) h

The volume of a cone is
V=\pi r^2(h)/(3)

Therefore, the volume of a cone is 1/3 that of a cylinder.
