Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cone of height h and a circular base of radius r is given by [tex]V=\frac{\pi r^2 h }{3}[/tex]. Note that [tex]\pi r^2[/tex] is the area of the base, therefore, if we want to find the area of the base we must multiply the equation by 3 and divide by h. Hence
[tex]\pi r^2 = \frac{3V}{h}[/tex]
In this case, h=12. Given a value of V, we can find the area of the base
