Learn how to determine the volume of a cone

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the volume of different geometric shapes, focusing on prisms, cylinders, and cones. It begins with a review of prisms and cylinders, highlighting the formula for volume calculation as base times height. The tutorial then introduces cones, explaining that their volume is one-third that of a cylinder with the same base and height. A practical example is provided, demonstrating the calculation of a cone's volume using specific dimensions and emphasizing the importance of using the correct height in the formula.
