A cylinder and a cone have the same diameter: 10 inches. The height of the cylinder and the cone is the same: 12 inches.

Use π = 3.14.

What is the relationship between the volume of this cylinder and this cone? Explain your answer by determining the volume of each and comparing them. Show all your work.

Respuesta :

Volume of cylinder is 3 times of volume of cone having same base diameter and same height.

Solution:

Given that  

A cylinder and A cone have the same diameter = 10 inches and same height = 12 inches

Need to find the relationship between volume of cylinder and cone.

Let’s calculate volume of each object separately first.

Calculation of volume of cylinder :

Formula of volume of cylinder is given as:

[tex]V_{c y}=\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

Where π=3.14

[tex]\text { radius } r=\frac{\text {diameter}}{2}=\frac{10}{2}=5 \text { inches }[/tex]

height h = 12 inches  

On substituting given values in formula of cylinder we get

[tex]\begin{array}{l}{V_{c y}=3.14 \times 5^{2} \times 12=942 \text { cubic inches }} \\\\ {\text { Volume of cylinder }=V_{c y}=942 \text { cubic inches }}\end{array}[/tex]

Calculation of volume of cone:

Formula of volume of cone is given as:

[tex]V_{c o}=\frac{\pi r^{2} h}{3}[/tex]

Here π=3.14

[tex]\begin{array}{l}{\text { radius } r=\frac{\text { diameter }}{2}=\frac{10}{2}=5 \text { inches }} \\\\ {\text { height } \mathrm{h}=12 \text { inches }}\end{array}[/tex]

On substituting given values in formula of cone we get

[tex]V_{c o}=\frac{3.14 \times 5^{2} \times 12}{3}=314 \text { cubic inches }[/tex]

[tex]\text { Volume of cone }=V_{c o}=314 \text { cubic inches }[/tex]

On comparing the two volumes we get  

[tex]V c y: V c o=942: 314=3: 1[/tex]

Hence can conclude that Volume of cylinder is 3 times of volume of cone having same base diameter and same height.
