The formula for the volume of a cone is most like the formula for the volume of which figure?
Solution:
The volume of a cone is defined as the amount of space or capacity a cone occupies.
A cone can be framed by stacking many triangles and rotating them around an axis. A cone is a solid 3-D shape figure with a circular base. It has a curved surface area.
The distance from the base to the vertex is the perpendicular height
We have,
Volume of the cone = 1/3 πr2h
Volume of cylinder = πr2h
Volume of the cone / Volume of cylinder = 1/3 πr2h / πr2h = 1/3
Thus with the given radius and height, the volume of the cone will be 1/3rd of the volume of the cylinder.
The formula for the volume of a cone is most like the formula for the volume of which figure?
Summary:
The volume of the cone will be 1/3rd of the volume of the cylinder.
