To calculate the volume of a cone, you can use the formula:
V = (1/3) * π * r^2 * h
Where:
V = Volume
Ï€ = Pi (approximately 3.14159)
r = Radius of the base of the cone
h = Height of the cone
Given that the base diameter of the cone is 8cm, the radius (r) would be half of the diameter:
r = 8cm / 2 = 4cm
Now plug in the values into the formula:
V = (1/3) * π * 4^2 * 3
V = (1/3) * π * 16 * 3
V = (1/3) * 48Ï€
V = 16Ï€
Therefore, the volume of the cone is 16Ï€ cubic centimeters.
