A cake decorator rolls a piece of stiff paper to form a cone. She cuts off the tip of the cone and uses it as a funnel to pour decorative sprinkles into small containers. The cone has a radius of 6 cm and a height of 18 cm.
the formula for finding the volume of a cone is V= 1/3 x pi x r^2 x h . using the info given you would have the following problem to calculate : 1 /3 x 3.14 6 x 6 x 18 . the volume is approximately 678.24 cubic cm or 216 pi cm^3 . it would give you a answer as V=216 pi cm^3 .
