Question

From a circle of radius 15 cm., a sector with angle 216° is cut out and its bounding radii
are bent so as to form a cone. Find its volume. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Here,

Radius of the circle, R=15 cm

When the sector is cut and its bounding radii is bent to form a cone,

Slant height of the cone, l=R=15 cm

Let r and h be the radius and height of the cone, respectively.

Again, we know that in a circle of radius R, an arc of length X subtends an angle of θ radians, then

x=Rθ

Here, the arc length will be equal to the perimeter of the base circle of the cone.

x=2πr

2πr=Rθ
