Volume of a cone at a glance

 

Volume is a measure of how much space there is inside a solid object. To calculate the volume of a cone, we use the volume formula V=(1/3)π(r^2)h where h is the vertical height of the cone and r is the base radius of the cone.

 

Care should be taken not to confuse the vertical height with the slant height of the cone, which is used to calculate the curved surface area of the cone. 

 

The volume of the cone is measured in units cubed, for example cm^3  or mm^3 . We will often be asked to either give an answer in terms of π or to round the answer to a given degree of accuracy, such as to the nearest tenth.

 

Looking forward, students can then progress to additional volume worksheets and other geometry worksheets, for example a simplifying expressions worksheet or simultaneous equations worksheet.
