Find the volume of a right circular cone that has a height of 19.7 ft and a base with a diameter 9 ft. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic foot.

Respuesta :

Answer:

V = 417.8 ft³

Explanation:

The volume (V) of a right circular cone can be calculated as follows:

[tex] V = \frac{\pi*r^{2}*h}{3} [/tex]

Where:

r: is the radius of the circular cone

h: is the height of the circular cone = 19.7 ft

The radius of the circular cone can be found using the diameter (d) of the cone's base:

[tex] r = \frac{d}{2} = \frac{9}{2} = 4.5 ft [/tex]

Now, the volume is:

[tex] V = \frac{\pi*r^{2}*h}{3} = \frac{\pi*(4.5 ft)^{2}*19.7 ft}{3} = 417.8 ft^{3} [/tex]  

Therefore, the volume of a right circular cone is 417.8 ft³.

I hope it helps you!
