volume of cone = (1/3)(area of base)(height)
volume of cone = (1/3) (pi)(radius2) (height)
Plug in the information from the problem.
12 cm3 = (1/3) (pi)(radius2) (14 cm)
Multiply both sides by 3 .
36 cm3 = (pi)(radius2) (14 cm)
Divide both sides by 14 cm.
36/14 cm2 = (pi)(radius2)
Divide both sides by pi .
36/(14pi) cm2 = (radius2)
Take the positive square root of both sides.
\(\sqrt{\frac{36}{14\pi}}\,\text{ cm}\,=\,\text{radius} \\~\\ \text{radius} \,=\,\sqrt{\frac{36}{14\pi}}\,\text{ cm} \,\approx\,\sqrt{\frac{36}{14(\frac{22}7)}}\,\text{ cm}\,=\,\sqrt{\frac{36}{44}}\,\text{ cm}\,\approx\,0.905\,\text{ cm}\)
