Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 6

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given that, Relative error of height δhh=0.02 Relative error of radius δrr=0.02 Volume of the cone, V=13πr2h Applying log on both sides, logV=logπ3r2h ⇒ logV=logπ3+logr2+logh ⇒ 1VδV=0+2·δrr+δhh…
