Given:
a.) Height = 9 ft.
b.) Radius = 8 ft.
To be able to determine the volume of the cone, we will be using the following formula:
[tex]\text{ Volume = }\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h[/tex]We get,
[tex]\text{ Volume = }\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h[/tex][tex]\text{ = }\frac{1}{3}\pi(8)^2(9)[/tex][tex]\text{ = }\frac{9}{3}\pi(64)[/tex][tex]=(3\text{ x 64)(3.14)}[/tex][tex]\text{ Volume = 602.88 }\approx603ft^3[/tex]Therefore, the volume of the cone is 603 cubic feet.
