a cone had a radius of 5 meters and a height of 0.2 meters. approximate the volume of the cone to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

To calculate the volume of a cone, you can use the formula V = (1/3)πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.

Plugging in the values given for the radius and height:

V = (1/3)π(5)^2(0.2)
V = (1/3)π(25)(0.2)
V = (1/3)(5)(0.2)π
V = (1/3)(1)(π)
V = π/3

Approximating π to 3.14, the volume of the cone is approximately 1.0 cubic meters.
