2. Volume of Cones

Continue to next subchapter

Exercise 29 Page 604

Use the formula for the volume of a cone.

Approximately $340.3 cm^{3}$

Practice makes perfect

Consider the given cone.

To find the volume, we can use the formula for the volume of a cone.

V = \frac{1}{3} π r^{2} h

Here,

r

is the radius and

h

is the height of the cone. We are given that the height of the cone is

13

centimeters. The radius of the base is

5

centimeters. Let's substitute these values into the formula and calculate the volume.

V = \frac{1}{3} π r^{2} h

$r = 5$ , $h = 13$

V = \frac{1}{3} π (5)^{2} (13)

Simplify right-hand side

Calculate power

V = \frac{1}{3} π (25) (13)

Multiply

V = \frac{1}{3} π (325)

$\frac{1}{b} \cdot a = \frac{a}{b}$

V = \frac{3 2 5 π}{3}

Use a calculator

V = 340.339204 \dots

Round to $1$ decimal place(s)

V \approx 340.3

The volume of the cone is

340.3

cubic centimeters.
