Cone Volume Calculator (cm³ and Liters)
Find the volume of a cone instantly. Enter the base radius and the height in centimeters, and get the result in cubic centimeters (cm³) and liters using the formula V = (1/3)·π·r²·h.
Enter the radius and height to see the volume.
How it works
What is the volume of a cone?
A cone's volume is the amount of space it encloses. It equals exactly one third of a cylinder that shares the same base radius and height.
The formula is V = (1/3)·π·r²·h, where r is the base radius and h is the vertical height from base to apex.
Units and conversions
Enter the radius and height in centimeters and the result appears in cubic centimeters (cm³). Since 1 liter equals 1000 cm³, the calculator also shows the volume in liters.
Frequently asked questions
›What is the formula for a cone's volume?
V = (1/3)·π·r²·h, where r is the base radius and h is the height.
›What units does the calculator use?
Radius and height are entered in centimeters, and the volume is shown in cm³ and liters.
›How do I convert cm³ to liters?
Divide the value in cm³ by 1000, because 1 liter equals 1000 cm³.
›Is the height the slant height?
No. Use the vertical height from the base to the apex, not the slant side.
›Does the radius mean diameter?
No. Enter the radius, which is half of the base diameter.
