A professional baker uses a chocolate mold to make decorations for cakes one chocolate mold is in the shape of a cone and has a diameter of 2 cm and a height of 6cm what volume of chocolate in cubic centimeters is needed to make a solid chocolate cone use 3.14 for pi
To calculate the volume of a cone, you can use the following formula:
Volume of a cone = (1/3) * π * r^2 * h
Given that the diameter of the cone is 2 cm, the radius (r) will be half of that, which is 1 cm. The height (h) of the cone is given as 6 cm. We'll use 3.14 for π (pi) as instructed.
Now substituting the known values into the formula, we get:
Volume of a cone = (1/3) * π * r^2 * h
Volume of a cone = (1/3) * 3.14 * (1 cm)^2 * 6 cm
Volume of a cone = (1/3) * 3.14 * 1 * 6
Volume of a cone = (1/3) * 18.84
Volume of a cone = 6.28 cm³
Therefore, the volume of chocolate needed to make a solid chocolate cone would be 6.28 cubic centimeters.
