Question

Gretchen made a paper cone to hold a gift for a friend. The paper cone was 14 inches high and had a
radius of 4 inches. Find the volume of the paper cone to the nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for it.
The volume of the paper cone is about
in?

Answer 1

Answer:

268.0 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

refer to attached graphic as reference

volume of cone, V = (1/3) πr²h

in our case, we are given r = 4" and h = 16"

substituting this into equation:

V = (1/3) πr²h

=  (1/3) ·(3.14) · (4)²· (16)

= 267.94667 in²

= 268.0 in² (nearest tenth)

Answer 2

268.0 in^2 hope this helps
