Answer:

4 units (nearest whole number)

Explanation:

Formula


\textsf{volume of a cone}=\frac13 \pi r^2h

Solution

Given:

  • volume = 201.06 units³
  • height = 12 units


\implies 201.06=\frac13 \pi r^2(12)


\implies 201.06=4 \pi r^2


\implies r^2=(201.06)/(4 \pi)


\implies r=\sqrt{(201.06)/(4 \pi)}


\implies r=3.999980804...

Therefore, the radius of the cone is 4 units (nearest whole number)
