Find the radius $ r $ of a cone if height $h = 12$ and volume $V = 196$.
Answer
$r = 13.6809$
Explanation
To find radius $ r $ use formula:
$$ V = \dfrac{ r ^{ 2 } \cdot h \cdot \pi}{ 3 } $$After substituting $ V = 196 $ and $ h = 12 $ we have:
$$ 196 = \dfrac{ r ^{ 2 } \cdot 12 \cdot \pi}{ 3 } $$$$ 196 \cdot 3 = r ^{ 2 } \cdot 12 \cdot \pi $$$$ 588 = 12 \cdot r ^{ 2 } \cdot \pi $$$$ r ^{ 2 } = \dfrac{ 588}{ 12 \, \pi } $$$$ r ^{ 2 } = 187.1664 $$$$ r = \sqrt{ 187.1664 } $$$$ r = 13.6809 $$This page was created using
