Q. Find the volume of a right circular cone that has a height of 10.4m and a base with a radius of 4.9m. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic meter.Answer: m3
Recall Formula: Recall the formula for the volume of a right circular cone.The formula for the volume V of a right circular cone is V=31πr2h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cone.
Plug in Values: Plug in the given values into the formula.Using the given radius r=4.9m and height h=10.4m, we substitute these values into the formula to get V=31π(4.9)2(10.4).
Calculate Radius Square: Calculate the square of the radius.(4.9)2=24.01
Multiply Radius by Height: Multiply the squared radius by the height. 24.01×10.4=249.704
Calculate Volume: Multiply the result by (31)π to find the volume.V=(31)π×249.704=83.23467π
Calculate π Value: Calculate the value of π times 83.23467. Using π≈3.14159, we get 83.23467×π≈261.504
Round to Nearest Tenth: Round the result to the nearest tenth. Rounding 261.504 to the nearest tenth gives us 261.5 cubic meters.
