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

Radius is Five inches.

Slant height is Nine inches.

To find the volume of a cone, we can use the formula: V = 1/3 * π * r^2 * h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height (or slant height) of the cone.

Given that the radius is five inches (r = 5) and the slant height is nine inches (h = 9), we can substitute these values into the formula:

V = 1/3 * 3.14 * (5)^2 * 9
V = 1/3 * 3.14 * 25 * 9
V = 1/3 * 3.14 * 225
V = 1/3 * 706.5
V ≈ 235.5 cubic inches

Therefore, the volume of the cone is approximately 235.5 cubic inches.
