Question:

If the radius of the circular ends of a truncated conical bucket of height 45 cm are 14 cm and 7 cm, then find the capacity in cubic cm of the bucket. 

Options:

14,350

16,170

16,970

17,960

Correct Answer:

16,170

Explanation:

Volume of the bucket = \(\frac{1}{3}\) \(\pi \)H(r1+ r22 + r1r2)

                               = \(\frac{1}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 45 (142 + 72 + 14 × 7)

                               = \(\frac{1}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 45 × 343

                               = 16,170
