Choose the correct answer in each of the following :
The volume of a cone is 1570 cm3 and its height is 15 cm. What is the radius of the cone ?(Use π=3.14.)
(a) 10cm (b) 9 cm (c) 12 cm (d) 8.5 cm
ANSWER:
(a) 10 cm
Volume of the cone = 13πr2h
Let r cm be the radius of the cone.
Volume =1570 cm3
Then= 13 × 3.14 × r2 × 15 =1570cm3
⇒r2=15703.14 × 5 = 100 ⇒ r = 10cm
