To find the volume of a cone, you can use the formula:
\[ V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h \]
where:
- \( V \) is the volume,
- \( r \) is the radius,
- \( h \) is the height, and
- \( \pi \) is approximately \( 3.14 \).
Given:
- \( r = 5 \) inches,
- \( h = 9 \) inches.
Now, substitute the values into the formula:
\[ V = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times (5)^2 \times 9 \] \[ V = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times 25 \times 9 \] \[ V = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times 225 \] \[ V = \frac{1}{3} \times 706.5 \] \[ V = 235.5 \text{ cubic inches} \]
So, the volume of the cone is 235.5 cubic inches.
