00:0-1 In this example , we're asked to find the volume
00:02 of the given cone to find the volume of a
00:05 cone . We use the same formula that we use
00:08 to find the volume of a pyramid . Volume equals
00:13 one third times area of the base times height .
00:18 Notice , however , that the base of a cone
00:20 is a circle . And remember that the formula for
00:23 the area of a circle is pi times radius squared
00:27 . So another way to write the formula for the
00:29 volume of a cone is volume equals one third times
00:33 pi times radius squared times height , which is the
00:38 same thing as one third times area of the base
00:41 times height . So to find the volume of the
00:44 given cone . Since the radius is eight cm and
00:48 the height is 18 cm , we can plug this
00:51 information into the formula to get one third pie Times
00:58 eight cm squared times 18 cm . Remember that eight
01:05 centimeters squared is the same thing as eight centimeters times
01:09 eight centimeters , which equals 64 centimeters squared . And
01:15 we have one third pi times 64 centimeters squared times
01:22 18 centimeters simplifying from here , I would multiply one
01:28 third times 18 . Next notice that 18 and three
01:32 cross cancel to six and one and we have one
01:38 times pi times 64 centimeters squared times six centimeters ,
01:43 Which simplifies to 384 pi centimetres cubed . So one
01:51 way to write the volume of the given cone is
01:54 384 pi cubic centimeters . Next remember that Pi is
02:03 approximately equal to 3.14 so we can plug 3.14 and
02:08 for pie . And we have 384 Times 3.14 centimetres
02:17 cubed , which equals 1,205.76 cm cubed . So another
02:28 way to write the volume of the given cone is
02:31 1205.76 cubic centimeters
