Find the volume of a right circular cone that has a height of 2.5 ft and a base with a diameter of 5.2 ft. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic foot.

Answer :

Answer: volume of cone = 14.2 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the volume of a cone is expressed as

Volume = 1/3πr²h

Where

h represents the height of the cone

r represents the radius of the cone

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

From the information given

Height = 2 feet

Diameter of circular base = 5.2 feet

Radius = diameter/2 = 5.2/2

Radius = 2.6 feet

Therefore,

Volume of cone = 1/3 × 3.14 × 2.6² × 2

Volume of cone = 14.2 ft³ to the nearest tenth of a cubic foot
