    Pyramid=1/3 (hside^2)

    h=3 for both

    side for pyramid is 2pi

    pyramid=1/3 (3 (2pi) ^2)

    pyramid=4pi^2

    cone=1/3hpir^2

    h=3

    r=4

    cone=1/3 (3) (pi4^2)

    cone=pi16

    cone=16pi

    16pi compared to 4pi^2

    divide both sides by 4pi

    4 compared to pi

    4>pi because pi is about 3.14

    so cone has larger volume
