This math topic focuses on calculating the volumes of cones, a part of an advanced unit on the volume and surface area of complex 3D shapes in geometry. Specifically, it involves using images of cones (provided as SVG images) where students are required to apply the volume formula \(\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h\) (where \(r\) is the radius and \(h\) is the height of the cone). Students choose between two possible expressions for the volume in each presented problem, testing both their understanding of geometric formulas and their ability to manipulate expressions involving \(\pi\), squares, and fractions.
