For context in part a I got the full volume of the cone

raw sandal
#

Ok it's correct

#

For volume of B

raw sandal
#

Or you can use formula of volume of frustum of cone

Using volume of frustum is only going to get you so far, it's better to just do full cone - volume of A

#

But if you want to use frustum then there is no one stopping you

#

What’s frustum

#

The only thing known to find the volume of A is its height

#

There isn’t a radius of diameter to work out the volume

#

But since the cone was cut in half I guess the diameter of A is 10

I’ll use full cone - part A

#

It’s what I learned

To three significant figures
