Q12 of 107 Page 16

Find the volume of the largest right circular cone that can be cut out of a cube whose edge is 9 cm.

Given that, side of the cube = 9cm


Since largest cube is curved from cube


Diameter of base of cone = side of cube


⇒ 2x = 9 ⇒ x = cm


Height of cone, h = 9 cm


Volume of largest cone =


n


n


= 190.92 cm3


∴ volume of largest cone, v = 190.92 cm3
