Correct Answer: $\frac{125 \pi}{6 \sqrt{2}} \mathrm{~cm}^3$
Solution :
Given: A cone with a height equal to the radius and a slant height of 5 cm.
Using Pythagoras theorem, we have,
⇒ $r^{2}+r^{2}=5^{2}$
⇒ $2r^{2}=25$
⇒ $r=\frac{5}{\sqrt{2}}$
Volume of the cone = $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$ ---------(where $r=h$)
Putting the values, we have,
⇒ $\frac{1}{3}\pi ×\frac{5}{\sqrt{2}}×\frac{5}{\sqrt{2}}×\frac{5}{\sqrt{2}}$
⇒ $\frac{125}{6\sqrt{2}}\pi \mathrm{~cm}^3$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{125}{6\sqrt{2}}\pi \mathrm{~cm}^3$.
