A professional baker uses a chocolate mold to make decorations for cakes. One

chocolate mold is in the shape of a cone and has a diameter of 2 cm and a
height of 6 cm. What volume of chocolate, in cubic centimeters, is needed to
make a solid chocolate cone? Use 3.14 for π. (1 point)
○ 18.84 cubic centimeters
○ 37.68 cubic centimeters
○ 12.56 cubic centimeters
○ 6.28 cubic centimeters

1 answer

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

Given that the diameter is 2 cm, the radius would be half of that, so r = 1 cm. The height is 6 cm.

Plugging in these values:
V = (1/3) * π * 1^2 * 6
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 6
V = 6.28 cubic centimeters

Therefore, the correct answer is:
○ 6.28 cubic centimeters
