Given a cone with height of 10 cm and a base radius of 9 cm, what is the volume of the cone? Use 3.14 for π. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

if it is pointy with straight sides the volume

= (1/3) * area of base * height
= (1/3) * 3.14 * 81 * 10

To find the volume of a cone, we can use the formula V = (1/3)πr^2h, where V is the volume, π is the mathematical constant approximately equal to 3.14, r is the radius of the base of the cone, and h is the height of the cone.

In this case, the radius of the base is given as 9 cm and the height is given as 10 cm. Using the formula, we can substitute the given values and calculate the volume of the cone as follows:

V = (1/3)πr^2h
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 9^2 * 10
V ≈ (1/3) * 3.14 * 81 * 10
V ≈ (1/3) * 3.14 * 810
V ≈ 853.74

So, the volume of the cone is approximately 853.74 cubic centimeters when rounded to the nearest tenth.
