Illustrative Mathematics: G Mg Ice Cream Cone

Curated by ACT

You have been hired by the owner of a local ice cream parlor to assist in his company's new venture. The company will soon sell its ice cream cones in the freezer section of local grocery stores. The manufacturing process requires that the ice cream cone be wrapped in a cone-shaped paper wrapper with a flat circular disc covering the top. The company wants to minimize the amount of paper that is wasted in the process of wrapping the cones. Use a real ice cream cone or the dimensions of a real ice cream cone to complete several tasks. Detailed solutions are provided. Aligns with G-MG.A.3.
