Question 13 Mensuration Exercise 17.2

The height of a cone is 15 cm. If its volume is 1570 cm2 , find the radius of the base. (Use π = 3.14)

Answer:

Solution:

Consider a cone with a height of "h" and a circular base with radius "r." This cone's volume will be equal to one-third of the base's area multiplied by its height.

Given height of a cone, h = 15 cm

Volume of the cone = 1570 cm3

(1/3)π r2h = 1570

(1/3)3.14 ×r2×15 = 1570

5 ×3.14×r2 = 1570

r2 = 1570/5×3.14 = 314/3.14 = 100

r = 10

Hence the radius of the cone is 10 cm. M L Aggarwal - Understanding ICSE Mathematics - Class 10 chapter Mensuration Question 13 Solution image
