Find the capacity in litres of a conical vessel with :

(i) radius 7 cm, slant height 25 cm


(ii) height 12 cm, slant height 13 cm.

i) we have,


radius of cone =7cm


slant height =25 cm


vertical height of cone h = √(252 – 72) = √576 = 24 cm


hence capacity (volume) of cone = 1/3×22/7×49×24 = 1232 cm3


ii) we have,


height = 12 cm


slant height =13 cm


radius of cone r = √(132-122) = √25 = 5 cm


volume of conical vessel = 1/3×22/7×5×5×12 = 2200/7 = 314.28 cm3
