Calculate the volume of a cone 14cm in base diameter and 24cm high
The formula to calculate the volume of a cone is:
V = 1/3 × π × r² × h
where V is the volume, π is Pi (3.14), r is the radius (half of the diameter), and h is the height.
To calculate the radius, we need to divide the diameter by 2:
r = d/2 = 14cm/2 = 7cm
Now we can substitute the values into the formula:
V = 1/3 × 3.14 × 7² × 24
V = 1/3 × 3.14 × 49 × 24
V = 1/3 × 370.56
V = 123.52 cm³
Therefore, the volume of the cone is 123.52 cubic centimeters.
