A cone with a polygonal base is called a pyramid. To calculate its volume you need to multiply the base area area of a circle. VOLUME OF CONE BY USING INTEGRATION- Y r h y r x h r X 0 0 X h Y Let us consider a right circular cone of radius r and the height h.
This page examines the properties of a right circular cone.
The volume of a cone is Since the base of a cone is a circle we can substitute the formula of area of a circle pi r2 pi r 2 for B B to get the formula for volume of a cone. A cone has a radius r and a height h see picture below. The formula for the volume of the cylinder was known to be pr 2 h and the formula for the volume of a cone was known to be 1 3 pr 2 h. Write the formula to find volume of a cone.
