Question

Find the volume of a cone with a diameter of 11.5 inches and a height of 15.2 inches.

Answer 1

The volume of a right circular cone is
`526\ \text{feet}^3`.

Explanation:

We have,

Diameter of a cone is 11.5 inches

Height of a cone is 15.2 inches

It is required to find the volume of a cone. The volume of a cone is given in terms of radius r and height h as :

d = 11.5 inches

Radius, r = 5.75 inches

`V=(1)/(3)\pi r^2 h\\\\V=(1)/(3)* 3.14* (5.75)^2* 15.2\\\\V=526\ \text{inches}^3`,

So, the volume of a right circular cone is
`526\ \text{feet}^3`.
