a picture if a cone has two arrows pointing
at one of them represents the length the
other represents the base which says 8yd
using the information below what is the
cones height?
(1 point)
This cone has a volume of 803.84 yd Find
the height of the cone. Let =3.14
The correct answer is 12
I apologize for the error in my previous response. Let's reevaluate the problem using the correct given information.
We are given that the base of the cone has a length of 8 yd. The base of a cone is usually referred to as the diameter, but since we are dealing with arrows pointing at the base, we can assume it represents the radius instead. Therefore, the radius (r) of the cone is 8 yd.
The formula for the volume of a cone is:
Volume = (1/3) * π * r^2 * h
We are given the volume of the cone is 803.84 yd^3, so we can substitute this value and the radius into the formula:
803.84 = (1/3) * 3.14 * (8^2) * h
Simplifying, we have:
803.84 = (1/3) * 3.14 * 64 * h
803.84 = 67.0144 * h
Dividing both sides by 67.0144, we get:
h = 803.84 / 67.0144
h ≈ 11.99
Therefore, the height of the cone is approximately 11.99 yd, which we can round to 12 yd.
To find the height of the cone, we can use the formula for the volume of a cone:
Volume = (1/3) * π * r^2 * h
We are given that the volume is 803.84 yd^3, so we can substitute this into the formula:
803.84 = (1/3) * 3.14 * (8/2)^2 * h
Simplifying, we have:
803.84 = (1/3) * 3.14 * 16 * h
803.84 = (1/3) * 50.24 * h
803.84 = 16.7472 * h
Dividing both sides by 16.7472, we get:
h = 803.84 / 16.7472
h ≈ 47.984
Therefore, the height of the cone is approximately 47.984 yd.
