SSC CHSL 2023 PYQ — Question 67

SSC CHSL - 02 Aug 2023 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q67

If a right circular cone of height 24 cm has the circumference of its base 42π cm, then the volume of the cone is
(use π = 227\frac{22}{7})

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 11088 cm³.

Given that

If a right circular cone of height 24 cm has the circumference of its base 42π cm

Formula used

Volume of a cone = ⅓ 𝜋r2h cubic units

The circumference of its base = 2πr

where, r is radius and h is height of the cone

Calculation

2πr = 42π

r = 21 cm

Volume of a cone = ⅓ 𝜋r2h = (1/3) × (22/7) × 441 × 24 = 11088 cm³
