Question

what is the approximate volume of the oblique cone? use π ≈ 3.14 and round to the nearest tenth. 141.3 cube units 235.5 cube units 117.8 cube units 282.6 cube units

Explanation:

Step1: Recall volume formula

The volume formula for a cone is $V = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$.

Step2: Identify values

Given $r = 5$ and $h = 9$, and $\pi\approx3.14$.

Step3: Substitute values

$V=\frac{1}{3}\times3.14\times5^{2}\times9$.
First, calculate $5^{2}=25$. Then, $\frac{1}{3}\times9 = 3$. So $V=3.14\times25\times3$.
$25\times3 = 75$, and $3.14\times75=235.5$.

Answer:

235.5 cubic units
