    A. 525.42 inches^3

    B. 175.91 mm

    Step-by-step explanation:

    a. Here we are asked to calculate the volume of the cone given the radius and the height of the cone.

    Mathematically, the volume of the cone can be calculated using the formula below;

    V = 1/3 * π * r^2 * h

    where r is the radius which is 5.1 inches and h is the height of the megaphone = 19.3 inches

    Plugging these values, we have;

    V = 1/3 * 3.14 * 5.1^2 * 19.3 = 525.42 inches^3

    b. Here we are tasked with calculating the height given the value of the volume and the radius.

    mathematically, the formula to use is

    V = 1/3 * π * r^2 * h

    where V = 356,456.2136 cubic millimeter and r is 44mm

    plugging these values we have

    356,456.2136 = 1/3 * 3.14 * 44^2 * h

    h = (1,069,368.6408) / 6,079.04

    h = 175.91 mm
