The area of this cylinder's base is one hundred fifty square inches. The height of the cylinder is 6 inches. What is the volume of the cone that has the same base area and height? Show the steps of your solution and explain your work.

I believe this is correct lol, Well the volume of a cone is \[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 } \pi r^2 h\] h = height and pi r^2 is = to the area of the base of the cone....which you are also given (150) so your equation should look like \[V = \frac{ 1 }{ 3 } (150) (6)\]

The pyramids at Giza include several square-based pyramids that were built in honor of the Egyptian gods. One of these incredible monuments is the Khafre pyramid, built as part of a temple complex, with the famous Sphinx at its base. The base length of this pyramid is seven hundred five feet, and its height is four hundred seventy-one feet. Massive dimensions indeed! Calculate the volume of the Khafre pyramid. Show the steps of your solution and explain your work.

Ahh okay, well the volume of a square based pyramid is \[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 } b^2 h\] where 'b' is your base length and 'h' is your height so you should have \[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }(705)^2 (471)\]

OMG THANKS YOU SO MUCH.
