Question
Find the radius of the base of a conical container wI height is $1 / 3$ of the radius and whose volume is 180 c. inches. $[\text {Note}: \text { The volume of a cone of radius } r$ and he $\left.h \text { is } \pi r^{2} h / 3 .\right]$
Step 1
The formula for the volume of a cone is $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$, where $r$ is the radius of the base and $h$ is the height of the cone. Show more…
