Question

These right cones are similar.
H = , h =
Volume of large cone =
Volume of small cone =
Volume of large cone =
------------------
Volume of small cone

Answer 1

Find H by pyathagorean theorem.

Answer 2

like a2=b2=c2 right

Answer 3

Right!

Answer 4

like 12sq2+H2=20SQ2

Answer 5

Right on!

Answer 6

i got 16

Answer 7

You have enough to find volume big cone: (1/3)pi r^2 h

Answer 8

i got 3pih then what next

Answer 9

You know what is H and r for the big cone?

Answer 10

yea 16 and 12

Answer 11

Now use 'similar triangles' to find small cone

Answer 12

what u mean..

Answer 13

Take info from one triangle to find info from another h/16=3/12 solve for h of small cone.

Answer 14

4

Answer 15

Now you have info like you did the big cone

Answer 16

i got 64

Answer 17

Good, check your work I was just showing the way. You have a lot of questions; you need this to graduate or what are you working on? :)

Answer 18

i just need help for my homework that all

Answer 19

Keep working, you're pretty sharp.

Answer 20

so i can to find the volume of small cone right

Answer 21

Just follow exactly as you did the big cone. You have to keep track of the methods and techniques.

Answer 22

i just got 4 as volume for small cone

Answer 23

Good, check your work. I don't know.

Answer 24

so now i divide both volume but it have faction as answer

Answer 25

Why are you dividing? I thought you just wanted vol of big cone, vol of small cone.

Answer 26

look up the title it said divide = ?/?

Answer 27

Or do you mean the final answer of each happens to be a fraction? If that is what you mean it is OK it starts with a fraction 1/3; not everything ends in whole numbers.

Answer 28

oh i get and can u help me with the other question?
