LIKE NO JOKE, Cones A and B both have volume 12 cubic units, but have different dimensions. Cone A has radius 3 units and height 4 units. Find one possible radius and height for Cone B. Explain how you know Cone B has the same volume as Cone A.

te your teacher

Step-by-step explanation:

A possible solution is that radius of cone B is 2 units and height is 36 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is given by

where

r is the radius

h is the height

Here we are told that both cones A and B have the same volume, which is:

And

(2)

We also know that cone A has radius 6 units:

and height 4 units:

For cone B, from eq.(2), we get

One possible solution for this equation is

In fact in this case, we get:

Therefore a possible solution is that radius of cone B is 2 units and height is 36 units, and we know that in this case Cone B has the same volume as cone A because it is told by the problem.
