Read each question carefully and calculate the volume or surface area of the cones as instructed. Use π ≈ 3.14. Round your answers to two decimal places where necessary.

1. Calculate the volume of a cone with a radius of 3 cm and a height of 7 cm.

h=7cmr=3cm

2. A cone has a diameter of 10 meters and a height of 12 meters. Find its volume.

h=12md=10m

3. The formula for the lateral surface area of a cone is πrL, where r is the radius and L is the   height.

4. To find the total surface area of a cone, you add the lateral surface area to the area of the  .

5. A cone has a radius of 4 cm and a slant height of 9 cm. Calculate its lateral surface area.

L=9cmr=4cm

6. Find the total surface area of a cone with a radius of 5 cm and a slant height of 13 cm.

L=13cmr=5cm

7. Which of the following is the correct formula for the volume of a cone?

a

V = πr²h

b

V = (1/3)πr²h

c

V = 2πrh

d

V = πrL

8. What is the radius of a cone if its diameter is 18 cm?

a

18 cm

b

9 cm

c

36 cm

d

6 cm

9. The height of a cone is always shorter than its slant height.

T

True

F

False

10. Doubling the radius of a cone will double its volume.

T

True

F

False
