Coordinate Geometry Answer 2
Coordinate Geometry Answer 2:

2. Consider a cone with a height of 12 inches and a radius at its base of 3 inches. What is the volume of this cone?

F. 3p

G. 12 p

H. 36 p

J. 72 p

K. 108 p

The correct answer is H.

To find the volume of a cone, use this formula:

cone volume = (height ´ radius2 ´ p) / 3

Now substitute the values from the problem.

cone volume = (12 ´ 9 ´ p) / 3

cone volume = 36p
