we need to find the height of the cylinder
pythagorean theorem
15 is the bottom leg (30/2=15)
17 is hypotonuse
b=height
15^2+b^2=17^2
225+b^2=289
minus 225 both sides
b^2=64
sqrt both sides b=8

Vcone=(1/3)hpir^2
d/2=r=30/2=15
h=8
V=(1/3)8pi15^2
V=(1/3)8pi225
V=8pi75
V=600pi
aprox pi=3.14159256
V=1884.955536 in^3
