Answer :

The volume of model is 452.16 cubic inches

Solution:

Given that,

A model of a volcano has a height of 12 in., and a diameter of 12 in.

We know that, volcano is of shape cone,

The volume of cone is given as:

[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \times \pi r^2 h[/tex]

Where,

r is the radius

h is the height

From given,

h = 12 inches

Diameter = 12 inches

[tex]Radius = \frac{diameter}{2}\\\\Radius = \frac{12}{2} = 6[/tex]

Substituting the values we get,

[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times 6^2 \times 12\\\\V = 3.14 \times 36 \times 4\\\\V = 452.16[/tex]

Thus volume of model is 452.16 cubic inches

Answer:

452.16 is correct i just took the test!
