Solution

Break Down the Problem

  1. Identify what is being asked: The formula for the volume of a right cone.
  2. Recognize the variables given: Base area B B and height h h .

Relevant Concepts

  1. The formula for the volume V V of a cone is derived as follows: V=13×Base Area×Height V = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height} In this case, the base area B B and height h h are used.

Analysis and Detail

  1. Applying the formula using the given variables: V=13Bh V = \frac{1}{3} B h This indicates that the volume is one-third the product of the base area and height.

Verify and Summarize

  1. Confirming our understanding: The volume of a right cone, given its base area and height, indeed follows the aforementioned formula.

  2. The correct formula is V=13Bh V = \frac{1}{3} Bh which corresponds to one of the options given.

Final Answer

The correct answer is C. V=13Bh \text{C. } V = \frac{1}{3} Bh .
