The first thing to do in all math problems is to try to understand what is being asked for?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Start by using the formula for the volume of a cone

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank you

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

The volume of a cone is 1/3(Area of Base)(height)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

The area of the base is the same as the area of a circle, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah
