Exploring the Volume of a Cone

How many cones does it take to fill a cylinder with the same height and radius?

• 1 cone

• 3 cones

• 2 cones

• 4 cones

What is the formula for the volume of a cylinder?

• Volume = 2 * pi * radius * height

• Volume = (1/3) * pi * radius^2 * height

• Volume = pi * radius^2 * height

• Volume = radius * height

What fraction of a cylinder's volume is one cone's volume, if they have the same radius and height?

• 1/3

• 1/2

• 1/4

• 1/5

How do you calculate the volume of a cone?

• pi * radius^2 * height
