What is the volume of a cone with slant height 5 and a radius of 3. This is my first time doing a volume problem. How would I set this up in order to find Area and height for the volume equation v=1/3 A H?

1 answer

A is the area of the base ... π r^2 ... 9 π ... in this case

the slant height, radius and height form a Pythagorean triple ... 3 - 4 - 5

v = 1/3 * 9 π * 4
