Capacity or volume of a cone = 1/3*pi*radius2*height measured in cubic units

A person can calculate the volume of a cone by multiplying the height by pi and by the square of the radius of the cone, and then dividing the result of the previous operations by three.
To find the capacity (volume) of a cone, you can use the formula ( V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h ), where ( V ) is the volume, ( r ) is the radius of the base, and ( h ) is the height of the cone. First, measure the radius and height, then substitute these values into the formula. Calculate the area of the base using ( \pi r^2 ), multiply it by the height, and finally divide by 3 to get the volume.
Separate them into parts. First calculate the volume of the cylinder, then the cone and then add the results
You simply calculate it like a cone, but the height of the cone is the height to the top of the FILLED part, not all the way. Half-filled is not enough information . . . there can be "half filled" meaning half the height of the cone, but can also be "half filled" meaning half the volume of the cone.
The shape described cannot be a cone since a cone has a base at one end and a point - of zero length - at the other!
