Spinning Cone
Volume of a Cone vs Cylinder. The volume formulas for cones and cylinders are very similar: The volume of a cylinder is: π × r2 × h. The volume of a cone is: 1 3 π × r2 × h. So a cone's volume is exactly one third ( 1 3 ) of a cylinder's volume. You should order your ice creams in cylinders, not cones, you get 3 times as much!
