Full solution

Q. The volume of a right cone is 700π700\pi units3^3. If its height is 2121 units, find its diameter.
  1. Volume Formula Application: The formula for the volume of a right cone is V=13πr2hV = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h, where VV is the volume, rr is the radius, and hh is the height. We are given the volume (V=700πV = 700 \pi) and the height (h=21h = 21 units). We need to solve for the radius rr first.
  2. Substitute and Solve for r2r^2: Substitute the given values into the volume formula and solve for r2r^2. \newline700π=(13)πr221700 \pi = (\frac{1}{3}) \cdot \pi \cdot r^2 \cdot 21\newlineTo isolate r2r^2, we first divide both sides by π\pi, which cancels out the π\pi terms.\newline700=(13)r221700 = (\frac{1}{3}) \cdot r^2 \cdot 21
  3. Isolate r2r^2: Next, we divide both sides by 2121 to further isolate r2r^2. \newline70021=(13)r2\frac{700}{21} = \left(\frac{1}{3}\right) * r^2\newliner2=(70021)3r^2 = \left(\frac{700}{21}\right) * 3\newliner2=100r^2 = 100
  4. Solve for r: Now, we take the square root of both sides to solve for r.\newliner=100r = \sqrt{100}\newliner=10r = 10
  5. Find Diameter: Since the diameter is twice the radius, we multiply the radius by 22 to find the diameter.\newlineDiameter = 2×r2 \times r\newlineDiameter = 2×102 \times 10\newlineDiameter = 2020 units
