Problem 1: Find the volume of the cone with slant height 23 mm and radius 14 mm (assuming the 14 mm is radius, and we need to find height first)
Step 1: Find the height of the cone
We know the slant height \( l = 23 \) mm, radius \( r = 14 \) mm. Using the Pythagorean theorem for a cone \( h=\sqrt{l^{2}-r^{2}} \)
\( h=\sqrt{23^{2}-14^{2}}=\sqrt{529 - 196}=\sqrt{333}\approx18.25 \) mm
Step 2: Use the volume formula for a cone \( V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h \)
\( V=\frac{1}{3}\times\pi\times14^{2}\times18.25 \)
\( V=\frac{1}{3}\times\pi\times196\times18.25 \)
\( V=\frac{1}{3}\times\pi\times3577 \)
\( V\approx\frac{1}{3}\times3.1416\times3577\approx3757.3 \) cubic mm (rounded to nearest tenth)
Step 1: Find the height
\( h = \sqrt{l^{2}-r^{2}}=\sqrt{3.8^{2}-1.1^{2}}=\sqrt{14.44 - 1.21}=\sqrt{13.23}\approx3.64 \) ft
Step 2: Volume of cone \( V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h \)
\( V=\frac{1}{3}\times\pi\times1.1^{2}\times3.64 \)
\( V=\frac{1}{3}\times\pi\times1.21\times3.64 \)
\( V=\frac{1}{3}\times\pi\times4.4044 \)
\( V\approx\frac{1}{3}\times3.1416\times4.4044\approx4.6 \) cubic ft (rounded to nearest tenth)
Step 1: Identify radius and height
\( r=\frac{3.5}{2}=1.75 \) ft, \( h = 8.4 \) ft
Step 2: Volume of cone \( V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h \)
\( V=\frac{1}{3}\times\pi\times1.75^{2}\times8.4 \)
\( V=\frac{1}{3}\times\pi\times3.0625\times8.4 \)
\( V=\frac{1}{3}\times\pi\times25.725 \)
\( V\approx\frac{1}{3}\times3.1416\times25.725\approx26.9 \) cubic ft (rounded to nearest tenth)
