What is the volum, in cubic inches, of a cone with a diameter of 6 inches and a height of 7 inches? Use 3.14 for pi
The radius of the cone can be found by dividing the diameter by 2:
radius = 6 inches / 2 = 3 inches
The formula for the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)πr^2h. Plugging in the values we have:
V = (1/3)(3.14)(3 inches)^2(7 inches)
= (1/3)(3.14)(9 square inches)(7 inches)
= (1/3)(3.14)(63 square inches)
≈ 66.4 cubic inches.
Therefore, the volume of the cone is approximately 66.4 cubic inches.
