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

To find the volume of a cone, you can use the formula:

V = (1/3) * π * r^2 * h

where:
V = volume of the cone
π ≈ 3.14
r = base radius of the cone
h = perpendicular height of the cone

In this case:
r = 9 inches
h = 5 inches

V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 9^2 * 5
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 81 * 5
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 405
V = 3.14 * 135
V = 424.5 cubic inches

Therefore, the volume of the cone is 424.5 cubic inches.

Answer 2

This is not correct there's an error

Answer 3

Apologies for the mistake in my previous response. Let's recalculate the volume of the cone using the correct formula:

V = (1/3) * π * r^2 * h

Given:
r = 9 inches
h = 5 inches

V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 9^2 * 5
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 81 * 5
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 405
V = (1/3) * 1271.7
V = 423.9 cubic inches

Therefore, the correct volume of the cone is 423.9 cubic inches. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
