Answer:

Volume of the given cone is 1107.6 cubic feet.

Explanation:

Formula to get the volume of a right circular cone is,

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

Here r = radius of the circular base

h = height of the cone

Now we put the values in the given formula

Volume =
$(1)/(3)\pi (8.6)^2(14.3)$ [ radius =
(17.2)/(2)=8.6 ]

=
$(1057.628\pi )/(3)$

= 1107.55

≈ 1107.6 cubic feet

Therefore, volume of the given cone is 1107.6 cubic feet.
