Question

What is the volume of a cone with a height of meters and a base diameter of meters?

Answer

The formula for the volume of a cone is $\frac{1}{3}{\pi}r^{2}h$ .

Notice that we are given the diameter, meters, not the radius; thus, we have to solve for the radius by dividing the diameter by two. The radius is therefore 3 meters. Then, we plug this value into the formula for volume:

$\frac{1}{3}{\pi}(3)^{2}\cdot 6 = \frac{1}{3}{\pi}9\cdot 6 = 18{\pi}\ \textup{meters}^3=18\pi m^3$

Question

What is the volume of a cone with a radius of and a height of ?

Answer

To find the volume of a cone, use the equation:

$Volume=\frac{1}{3}(Area\ of\ Circle)(Height)$

Solve for the area of a circle with radius :

$Area\ of\ Circle=\pi(5^{2})$

$Area\ of\ Circle = 25\pi$

Substitute $25\pi$ for area of circle and for height into the equation for volume

$Volume=\frac{1}{2}(25\pi)(12)$

$Volume=150\pi$ .
