Use the image to answer the question.
A right cone shows a base radius of 5 centimeters and a perpendicular height of 9 centimeters. A right angle is formed with the diameter and the height at the center of the circular base.
What is the volume of the cone in cubic centimeters? Use 3.14 for pi. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. (1 point)

The formula for the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)πr²h, where r is the base radius and h is the height.
Plugging in the values, we get V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 5² * 9
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 25 * 9
V = 235.5 cubic centimeters
Therefore, the volume of the cone is 235.5 cubic centimeters.
