The volume of a cone is 35 ft3 and the cone’s height is 7 ft.

What is the area of the base of the cone?

_________ ft2


Sagot :

iGreen
Formula:

V = 1/3 * b * h

Plug in what we know:

35 = 1/3 * b * 7

Multiply 7 * 1/3:

35 = 2 1/3 * b

Multiply:

35 = 2 1/3b

Divide 2 1/3 to both sides:

b = 15
