Question

The radius of the cone is 7 in and y = 25 in. What is the volume of the cone in terms of π? A cone with a right triangle formed from its dimensions; the value of the height is h, and the value of the slant height is y; the height x and the radius form a right angle at the center of the cone.

Answer 1

its A. 392

Explanation:

took the test. hope this helps

Answer 2

142.1π in³

Explanation:

Given that:

The radius (r) = 7 in

The slant height (y) = 25 in

Then the height (x) can be determined by using the Pythagoras rule:

y² = x² + r²

25² = x² + 7²

125 = x² + 49

125 - 49 = x²

x² = 76

x = √76

x = 8.7

The formula for the volume of a cone is;

= 1/3 πr²h

where;

height(h) is calculated as "x" from above = 8.7

Then;

= 1/3 × π × (7 in)² × 8.7 in

= 142.1π in³
