Question

what is the approximate volume of the cone? use 3.14 for π.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall cone volume formula

Volume formula: $V = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$
Given: $r=5$ cm, $h=6$ cm, $\pi=3.14$

Step2: Calculate base area

Base area: $\pi r^2 = 3.14 \times 5^2 = 3.14 \times 25 = 78.5$ cm²

Step3: Compute volume

$V = \frac{1}{3} \times 78.5 \times 6 = \frac{1}{3} \times 471 = 157$ cm³

Answer:

157 cm³
