PLEASE HELP ME Cone W has a radius of 10 cm and a height of 5 cm. Square pyramid X has the same base area and height as cone W.

Paul and Manuel disagree on how the volumes of cone W and square pyramid X are related. Examine their arguments. Which statement explains whose argument is correct and why?

Paul' Answer

The volume of square pyramid X is three times the volume of cone W. This can be proven by finding the base area and volume of cone W, along with the volume of square pyramid X. The base area of cone W is π(r2) = π(102) = 314 cm2. The volume of cone W is one third(area of base)(h) = one third(314)(5) = 523.33 cm3. The volume of square pyramid X is (area of base)(h) = (314)(5) = 1,570 cm3.

Manuel's Answer

The volume of square pyramid X is equal to the volume of cone W. This can be proven by finding the base area and volume of cone W, along with the volume of square pyramid X. The base area of cone W is π(r2) = π(102) = 314 cm2. The volume of cone W is one third(area of base)(h) = one third(314)(5) = 523.33 cm3. The volume of square pyramid X is one third(area of base)(h) = one third(314)(5) = 523.33 cm3.
