Assume Cylinder A and Cone B are the same height and the bases have the same radius. If A has a volume of 18π cm3, what is the volume of B?

Verified Answer :

The volume of a cone is (1/3) that of its similar cylinder. 
Thus the volume of the cone B would be: \(6 \pi cm^{3}\)

Answer:

The volume of cone is \(6\pi\ cm^{3}.\)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

\(Volume\ of\ a\ cylinder = \pi r^{2}h\)

\(Volume\ of\ a\ cone = \pi\ r^{2}\frac{h}{3}\)

Where r is the radius and h is the height .

As given

Assume Cylinder A and Cone B are the same height and the bases have the same radius. If A has a volume of 18π cm³.

Thus

\(Volume\ of\ cone = \frac{1}{3}\times Volume of cylinder\)

\(Volume\ of\ cone = \frac{18\pi }{3}\)

\(Volume\ of\ cone = 6\pi\ cm^{3}\)

Therefore the volume of cone is \(6\pi\ cm^{3}.\)
