To find the volume of a cone, we need to use the formula:
[tex]\[ \text{Volume} = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h \][/tex]
where
- [tex]\( r \)[/tex] is the radius of the base of the cone,
- [tex]\( h \)[/tex] is the height of the cone, and
- [tex]\( \pi \)[/tex] (pi) is approximately 3.14159.
Given data:
- Height ([tex]\( h \)[/tex]) of the cone = 5 cm
To perform the calculation and find the volume of the cone, we need the radius ([tex]\( r \)[/tex]) of the cone's base.
Since the radius is not provided, we are unable to proceed with the calculation for the volume of the cone. The radius is a crucial part of the volume formula and must be known to carry out the computation.
Therefore, in order to find the volume of the cone, the radius of the cone is required.
