Volume of Cones Section 8.2
Volume of a Cone The volume of a cone is the number of unit cubes, or cubic units, needed to fill the cone. The formula for the volume of a cone is 1/3 the product of the base Area and the height of the cone. V= 1/3 Bℎ
Volume of a Cone Since the base of a cone is always a circle, you can substitute π r² for B. V= 1/3 πr²ℎ The volume of a cone is 1/3 the volume of a cylinder with the same dimensions.
