A cone is 10 meters tall and has a radius of 3 meters. Using 3.14 for pi, what is the volume of the cone rounded to the nearest tenth
The formula for the volume of a cone is given by:
\[V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h\]
Where V represents the volume, r represents the radius, and h represents the height.
Plugging in the given values, we have:
\[V = \frac{1}{3} \cdot 3.14 \cdot (3^2) \cdot 10\]
\[V = \frac{1}{3} \cdot 3.14 \cdot 9 \cdot 10\]
\[V = \frac{1}{3} \cdot 3.14 \cdot 90\]
\[V = \frac{1}{3} \cdot 282.6\]
\[V = 94.2\]
Therefore, the volume of the cone is approximately 94.2 cubic meters when rounded to the nearest tenth.
