A cone has a diameter of 18 in. and a height of 14 in.


What is the volume of the cone?

Use 3.14 as an approximation for straight pi . Express your final answer in hundredths.

Verified Answer :

Cone's volume is \(V = \frac{1}{3}Sh\)
where    S - surface area,  h - height
Surface area =  \(\pi r^2\)

r = 18/2=9
h= 14
π = 3.14
\(V= \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h= \frac{1}{3} *3.14*9^2*14= \frac{1}{3} *3.14*81*14=27*14*3.14\)[/tex]
\(V = 1186.92\) \(in.^3\)
