The distance from the top of the cone to the edge is 15 feet. The height of the cone is 6 feet. What is the radius of the cone? Round to the nearest
tenth

Respuesta :

Answer: The radius of the cone is 5\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of a cone is equal to

V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h

In this problem we have

V=50\pi\ ft^{3}

h=6\ ft

substitute in the formula and solve for r

50\pi=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}(6)

Simplify

25=r^{2}

square root both sides

r=5\ ft
