Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : 507 : 250 Given: Increase in radius of cone = 30% Increased in height of cone = 20% Formula used: V = (1/3) × π × r2 × h where, V = volume of cone r = radius of cone h = height of cone Calculations: Let the initial radius and height of the cone be r, h. Initial volume = (1/3) × π × r2 × h New radius = r + (r × 30%) ⇒ 13r/10 New height = h + (h × 20%) ⇒ 6h/5 New volume = (1/3) × π × (13r/10)2 × (6h/5) ⇒ (1/3) × π × (169r2/100) × (6h/5) ⇒ (1/3) × π × r2 × h × (169/100) × (6/5) ⇒ (Initial volume) × (169/100) × (6/5) (New volume)/(Initial volume) = 507/250 ∴ The ratio of new volume to initial volume is 507 : 250. |
