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.

How do you find the volume of bottle?

A label on a bottle bought in a shop would show the volume. If there is no label, fill the bottle with water to the top, then empty the water into a measuring jar or cylinder. The volume is then read off the scale marked on the measuring jar or cylinder.


How do you find the radius of a cylinder when height and volume are given?

The volume of a cylinder is given by the equation V=2*pi*r*h V=volume r=radius h=height Since the height and volume are given in this case, rearranging the equation will show that r= V / (2*pi*h). With that equation you can find the radius of any cylinder with known volume and height.


Diameter height length is given how to find volume of cylinder laid horizontally?

Whether a cylinder is laid horizontally, or standing vertically, it has the same volume.The volume of a cylinder is the 'square area' of the circle at the end, multiplied by its length/height.The area of a circle is Pi x diameter. (The inner diameter is probably best. The final calculation will then show the total internal volume in cubic units.)End area x length = volume.If the cylinder is laid horizontally, the distance between the ends would be called its length. If the cylinder is standing up, the distance between the ends is called its height.


The area of this cylinder's base is 150 square inches The height of the cylinder is 6 inches What is the volume of the cone that has the same base area and height Show the steps of your solution?

The volume of a cone is (1/3)πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height, or (1/3)Bh, where B is the area of the base. Therefore, the volume of the cone is (1/3)(150)(6) = 2(150) = 300 cubic inches.

What else would need to be congruent to show that abc def by aas?

Nothing else, the angle-angle-side is sufficient to show the triangles are congruent. With two corresponding angles are equal, the third angles in the triangles by definition (the sum of the three angles in a triangle is 180o) must be equal making the triangles similar. If a corresponding pair of sides are also equal, then the other two corresponding pairs of sides will be equal.
