You are given two dimensions for a cone: the diameter of the base and the height. You are then asked to find the volume of the cone.

What must you do before you can find the volume of the cone?

• Multiply the height and the diameter of the base then divide the result by 3.
Divide the diameter of the cone's base by 2 to find the radius of the base.
© Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the slanted side of the cone.
© The information provided is not enough to find the volume of the cone.

The correct answer is: Divide the diameter of the cone's base by 2 to find the radius of the base.
