Which explanation can be used to informally derive the formula for the volume of a cone? A. A cone consists of a circle as a base and triangles for its body. The formula for the volume of a cone can be derived by adding the formula for the area of circle and the area of the number of triangles that will cover the body of a cone. B. A cone is approximately the same size as 1.5 spheres. Using the formula for the volume of a sphere and multiplying it by 1.5 will give the formula for the volume of a cone. C. A cone is similar to a triangular pyramid except that a cone has curved edges. Therefore, the formula for the volume of a cone can be derived by using the formula of a triangular pyramid and using the radius instead of the base length. D. A cylinder is exactly 3 times bigger than a cone with the same height and radius. Therefore, the formula for the volume of a cone is 1/3 of the volume of a cylinder with the same height and radius.
