Either of these errors make it impossible to answer the question in a sensible way.

Show that the volume of cylinder is equal to one third the volume of cone?

It isn't. If the cylinder and the cone have the same height and radius, the cylinder has a larger volume (twice as large). If they do not have the same height and radius you need more information to prove their relative volumes.
