IM 8.5.16 Lesson: Finding Cone Dimensions
For each equation, decide what value, if any, would make the equation true.
The volume of a cone with radius is given by the formula .
The volume of this cone with height 3 units and radius is cubic units.
This statement is true:
What does the radius of this cone have to be? Explain how you know.
Each row of the table has some information about a particular cone. Complete the table with the missing dimensions.
A frustum is the result of taking a cone and slicing off a smaller cone using a cut parallel to the base.
Find a formula for the volume of a frustum, including deciding which quantities you are going to include in your formula.
