Correct Answer: 314.3


Solution : Given: Radius = 5 cm
Slant height = 13 cm
$\text{height}=\sqrt{\text{slant height}^2-\text{radius}^2}=\sqrt{13^2-5^2}=\sqrt{169-25}=\sqrt{144}=12$
We know that,
The volume of the cone
= $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h$
= $\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times 5 \times 5 \times 12$
= $\frac{2200}{7}$
= $314.3$ cm 3
Hence, the correct answer is 314.3.
