find the volume of a cone in php

To find the volume of a cone in PHP, you can use the formula 1/3 * π * r^2 * h, where r is the radius of the base of the cone and h is the height of the cone. Here's an example function that takes in the values for r and h and returns the volume of the cone:

main.php
function cone_volume($r, $h) {
  // Calculate the volume using the formula
  $volume = 1/3 * pi() * pow($r, 2) * $h;
  
  // Return the volume
  return $volume;
}

You can then call this function with the appropriate values of r and h:

main.php
$r = 5; // Radius of the base
$h = 10; // Height of the cone

$volume = cone_volume($r, $h); // Calculate the volume

echo "The volume of the cone is " . $volume; // Output the result

This will output:

main.php
The volume of the cone is 261.79938779915
