Question

A movie theater uses a cone shaped container to serve popcorn. The cone has a height of 12 inches diameter 10. What is the volume of the cone? Round the answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Volume of cone:
pi * r^2 * (h/3)
r = 10/2 = 5
Height = 12
pi * 5^2 * (12/3)
= pi * 25 * 4 = 314.159
Solution: 314.2 in^3

Answer 2

Answer:

V = 314

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cone: $\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h$

$R=\frac{Diameter}{2}=\frac{10}{2} =5$

R = 5

H = 12

$\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(5^{2} )(12)=\frac{1}{3} (3.14)(25)(12)=\frac{942}{3}=314$
