What is the volume of a cone whose base diameter is 12 cm and the height is 21.7 cm?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 818.4 cm³.

Given:

Diameter of the cone = 12 cm

Radius of the cone (r) = 12/2 = 6 cm

Height of the cone (h) = 21.7 cm

Formula used:

Volume of the cone = (1/3)πr2h

Calculations:

According to the question;

⇒ Volume of the cone = (1/3) × (22/7) × 6 × 6 × 21.7

⇒ 818.4 cm3
