Q. Find the volume of a right circular cone that has a height of 14.3m and a base with a radius of 5.3m. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic meter.Answer: m3
Volume Formula for Cone: To find the volume of a cone, we use the formula V=31πr2h, where V is the volume, r is the radius of the base, and h is the height of the cone. We are given the radius r=5.3m and the height h=14.3m.
Calculate Radius Squared: First, we square the radius: (5.3m)2=28.09m2.
Multiply Radius Squared by Height: Next, we multiply the squared radius by the height: 28.09m2×14.3m=401.487m3.
Apply Formula for Cone Volume: Now, we multiply this result by 31 to apply the formula for the volume of a cone: (31)×401.487m3=133.829m3.
Round Final Result: Finally, we round the result to the nearest tenth: 133.829m3 rounds to 133.8m3.
