Jesse made a model of a mountain range for class. to do this, he bought a cylinder of cardboard and cut it into three cones. each cone is 5 inches tall and has a diameter of 4 inches. what was the volume of the original cylinder jesse bought in terms of \piπ?

Respuesta :

By definition, the volume of the cone is given by:
 V = (1/3) (π) (r ^ 2) (h)
 Substituting values we have:
 V = (1/3) (π) ((4/2) ^ 2) (5)
 V = (20/3) (π)
 Then, the volume of the cylinder is:
 Vc = 3 * V
 Vc = 3 * (20/3) (π)
 Vc = 20π
 Answer:
 
the volume of the original cylinder jesse bought is:
 
Vc = 20π
