Do u know the formula of the volume of a cone?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes v= 1/3 pi r^2 h

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is the volume of the smaller cone then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@blub2013

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(1/3)*pi*49

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(1/3)*pi*7^2 7^2=49

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but what about the height ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is how i did it 1/3*pi*7^4*12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes v= 1/3*pi*r^2*h

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(1/3)*pi*r2*h

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's alright :) your helping me though that's what counts your awesome

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(1/3)*pi*49*12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5353.896

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it is 615.75216

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean 553.896

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright from that how am i to find the bigger cones volume?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

615.75216

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 615.44

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do u agree it is (1/3)*pi*49*12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i do :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Paste that in google

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright

OpenStudy (anonymous):

615.75216

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So they say that The cones are similar

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do u know the formula Volume factor= (Scale factor)^3
