Use the image to answer the question.

An oblique cone shows a base radius of 9 inches. The perpendicular height is 5 inches from the apex to the base outside the cone. A right angle is formed outside the cone to the right. A dashed diagonal line connects the center of the circular base to the apex.

What is the volume of the cone? Use 3.14 for pi.

Answer 1

The volume of a cone is calculated using the formula V = (1/3)πr^2h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height.

Plugging in the values given:
V = (1/3)π(9)^2(5)
V = (1/3)π(81)(5)
V = (1/3)(3.14)(405)
V = 423.9 cubic inches

Therefore, the correct answer is 423.9 cubic inches.
