Base radius is 5in

Height=8in

Volume

  • 1/3πr²h
  • 1/3π(5)²(8)
  • 1/3π(8)(25)
  • 200π/3
  • 209.3in³

Answer:

Volume = 13.3 in³ (nearest tenth)

Explanation:


\textsf{Volume of a cone}=\sf (1)/(3) \pi r^2 h \quad\textsf{(where r is the radius and h is the height)}


\textsf{Base area of a cone = area of a circle}=\sf \pi r^2


\implies \textsf{Volume of a cone}=\sf (1)/(3) h * \textsf{base area}

Given:

  • Base area = 5 in²
  • Height = 8 in

Substituting the given values into the formula:


\begin{aligned}\implies \textsf{Volume of a cone} & =\sf (1)/(3) (8)(5)\\\\ & = \sf (40)/(3)\\\\ & = \sf 13.3\:in^3\:(nearest\:tenth)\end{aligned}
